Thanks Jeff! You may turn into a popular guy here (like you're not already in the rest of the forum!!!)


If anyone doesn't know already, 18carfan is THE guy to get parts for you from the dealer. I use him for all of my memcals, and any other misc parts I might need. Contact him for all your parts needs....


The only exception would be if you are swapping from an '870 to a '165 or from an '870/'165 to a '7730/'7727 and you risk a chance of frying an ECM because of crossed wires. In this case I would recommend getting a rebuilt ECM from a store that has a lifetime warranty.... just in case it is 'bad' when you get it and need to exchange it a few times!!!

Glad you brought that up...

I had an email conversation with Mike Davis about the pinout diagram he had posted on his site...Supposedly, it was wrong (I say supposedly, because I wasn't sure it had been corrected/updated)...

Does anyone have a working 165 to 730 conversion, and a pinout diagram they wouldn't mind sharing with us others???

I do have one Mike sent me...But it's F-body specific...
