I think pix of how you grafted a piece of the trans tunnel from an auto car to a stick car. Or was it a part you had for sale? A mind is a terrible thing to waste. Pipe

I've got one from an '86, it should be the same. I can cut it off the harness I have. LMK.

After a PM to Pipe I discovered I don't have the connectors. But what I came to realize was that non TPI Camaros which are all over the Pic N Pulls probably have the same exact two connectors that the TPI cars have. Pipe is looking for just the connectors because his harness had the pins removed from the plastic connectors. Even if some of the connector pins were messed up I think the bad ones could be cut off and spliced onto another wire and pin from a salvaged Camaro connector. I know I've been able to remove the wire and pin from the connector intact and move it to another location. I had to do this on my Caprice because I added a tach and needed to wire a pin to the tach output which was at the Caprice connector but wasn't wired out because the instrument cluster didn't have a tach. I know it's a bit of work to remove the pins with a tool to re-do but I think it could be done with some patience. What's needed is the two Camaro connectors with a pigtail of wire in case you had to splice onto one of the wires and a wiring diagram with the color code of the ECM connector so everything could be installed back to normal. Just a thought.

Here's a link to website that has pics of the connectors and the wiring diagram or color code for the pins. At the bottom of the ECM pinout page they show you how to remove the pins intact from the connector.
