Default Re: Worlds Cheapest V8 Swap

Just about done with dressing the engine out. All of the accessories are swapped over, and almost done with the wiring. The engine mounts are swapped over as well.

As far as the way the harness attaches to the multiple connections on the engine, the only differences between the V6 harness and the CL500 V8 harness are the AC compressor connector, and the connection at the (ML55 150a) alternator.

I have 5 wires I will have to splice and one I have to jump inside of the black box..... and that is it!! The V6 ME2.8 ECU has the exact same pinouts as the V8 ME2.8 ECU, just the V8 has the extra coils and injectors.

Almost there!!
