I dont think i can copy paste, I need the year/model and trim and I can get the pinout. I can see what I can do about posting them here. I think there are safeguards against me doing such.either way i can see what I can do. which systems do you want?

ok I'll see what I can do.
Personally I wouldn't remove all of the harness though, I would leave everything non engine related minus ign and start circuits that are already in the jeep. then I would strip the 4.3 harness down to strictly engine only and power it with the ign hot from the exhisting harness. that would be the logical way to do it without breaking into stuff you dont need to.

That all sounds easy on paper and the way i said it but trust me it will prob take you more time to pin out both harness' and ecms, than it took you to do the whole swap and some.
Not to mention I would think you would want a new Map for the 4.3 since its been stroked, by the way where did you have the 4.3 stroked, I've never seen a stroker shaft for those things did you have it welded and ground? kind of a waste, if you were going for more torque, you would have been beter off with the 4.0L or just putting a stock 350, in my experience your better off going with stock applications, especially in something your going to wheel. because [censored] always breaks and its tough to find a stroker rod out of a junk yard when you drop one on the way home because you didn't realize you blew a hole in your pan. not to mention the $$ you'de have tied into that crank:)

matching harnesses sucks time-wise. my suggestion is to lay the two harnesses out on either the floor or two folding tables (I don't like to bend over) lots of masking tape and markers to ID wires. I like to seperate what is under hood and what is under dash. then after I label everything, the I pin it out and combine into one harness deleting what is not needed.

Are you having the ECM re-flashed?
