Spoke with the seller , the engine was in fact a "STICK" and that is the OE harness for a stick. and THEY put the flexplate on.. He is searching to see if he has the correct harness...
I will continue my work on getting to the bottom of C-184...

vigman

Can't seem to find FUNCTIONS that are pinned to C -184. But I did get this…. REV -2

vigman

And MORE FAIL.... The seller doesn't have the CORRECT harness....
I found someone who does, They will send pix tomorrow.
In other news the good rubber fairy stopped by and put 2 new rear meats under my pillow.

Kinda frustrated at this point, which means back away for a bit and take a nap...
Later today, we wil take the car off the jack stands to prep for glass install tomorrow ( 2-4 pm ) .
..
AORoads got your messages THANK YOU...

Here are some connector lists that may help you. The Mitchell ones print out better, but the GM one I included all of the connectors (big document).

vigman

OUT FREAKING STANDING !!!!! So I'll plug this data into my sheet see what jives function wise and narrow the OH BY THE WAYS down.....
THANK YOU !!!!

In other news...
2nd FOB arrived ( need to program that )
And the car is down on the deck

cclive

This is fun to watch from afar...great project. For the second fob, here's the instructions...not sure if you had them already...

https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...tructions.html

Lots of troubleshooting info too.

PS, glad I'm watching from afar because I have no idea when it comes to putting an engine into a C6, so I wouldn't be any help at all if I lived next door to you...

You're welcome. Don't hesitate to ask if you need more info like the above.

OWWWOWWWWW OWWWW brain hurt
Ok page 1 is what I NEED to convert to.
Boxes in GREEN are a direct transfer ( but I haven't built the scramble sheet ) . However there is ALOT of stuff missing in the STICK harness and stuff I do NOT need.

This " workup " has taught me ALOT.. and we went from wild *** guess it MIGHT work to 11 of 23 those bits WILL work.

Still not there yet….

Gut hunch there is ALOT of pass thru wiring that COULD have been part of an external harness…but that's more connectors etc etc.

It seems that a correct harness will be my best bet for long term serviceability. ( IF I CAN FREAKIN FIND ONE ) ...

I could HACK this harness and mate it to what's left of my engine harness but now I would have a BOATLOAD of splices between the firewall and the forward bell housing ( BAD IDEA ).

Tomorrow, Have the new rear meats installed & Glass guy @ 2 ~ 4

vigman

Coffee, Laundry, Rear wheels off Vette, new tires & old rims & tires loaded in truck, BS time with Neighbor. SHOWER and off to Big John's.. OH and scored the CORRECT HARNESS ( $650 ) and got free shipping ( Whining pays off, AGAIN ) .. More later.. PHEW !

iced98lx

Glad to hear you got the right harness. splices on modern harnesses can make life fun. Great project following along and can't wait to see the smiling drive by video at the end.

"BS time with neighbor"...now that I would be able to help with...

vigman

New rear meats done....
Now the tire place I go to ( Big John's, Santa Clarita )
Is next to the Car Wash and there is a hole in the wall eatery.
They make a WHA~SUP Dog ( to DIE for )
So I HAD to have an early lunch !!
Glass guy between 2~4
Front tires will be delivered today.

I wrote ATI and did get this reply:
I'm sorry but there are no blem LS dampers available at the moment.

You will have to check the below link periodically to see what blems are listed.

Wire harness? voodoo to me. Hot dogs--great! ATI, too bad, great product, may have to go stock or some other mfr. Progress Made---glass, tires, etc.? Great, too! Keepin' on!!!

BTW saw this in C6 Parts for Sale. Maybe a reasonable but lower than retail price offer?

I sent the ATI dude a PM....Thanks for the heads up AORoads.

AORoads

Good! Suggestion: just in case he sees his email more than a PM, click on his name, notice that he actually has a 'send email' and send him an email, too. May catch his eye! Good luck.

irok

your stock 6 rib will work with the ATI 8 rib hb.

cclive

Good info...I was thinking about that...

I suppose it makes sense that a 6 rib belt would be OK on an 8 rib pulley but the reverse would not work.

vigman

My concern would be clearance between the harmonic & PS rack….
I need to balance my quicken accounts ( GAH )

vigman

I'm having my 350Z engine replaced. Doing the Checkbook ( THE HORROR ) AND the Z will be ready today ( 5640.00 ) GAH ! BUT that gets me a New(er) 16K W docs engine ,New Clutch ( Dual mass ) , NEW motor mounts all labor all fluids & warranty…. It SEEMS like ALOT, but not so much !

And it will be ready TODAY ( well that's the rumor ) the engine is in and the trans just went in….
