Wiring harness

[Chevell327]

I have a chance at an 84 SFI turbo 3.8 and 200-4R with 80k on it for $500, it ran and drove well when the car was totaled. I'm wanting to install it in a first gen chevelle and I'm looking for a stand alone engine harness. I'll also need to track down an ECM. What's the difference between the 84 and the 86-87s. I know there were changes like the oil pan and they were intercooled in 86-87. Was there any differences in the induction? I've seen harnesses for 86-87s can I use one of these?
Thanks for any help
Justin

Other than the ECM, which I need one anyway, is there anything that would keep me from being able to use an 86 or 87 harness? I'm pretty sure some of the sensors are different, but could I just replace them with 86-87 sensors? I called a place a they're looking into making me a stand alone harness, but he asked what year I needed it for, and if I could I'd rather use the newer ECM.

They are not the same.

There are some differnces such as the fan, sensor locations, ESC and I think the ecm side is pinned out differntly too.

You should be able to find an 84-85 wiring harness relatively easy.

If you need one I think I can point you in the direction for one.
