Several months back, we sent our 98 Buick 3800SC harness and the 87 Gt 2.8 harness to FieroFlyer. We received it back after a time. Now that we are ready for it, we started hooking it up. We are NOT wiring gurus hence the reliance on FieroFlyer's expertise. Getting to the question: We can't find the Crankshaft or Cam position sensor plugs and the coil plate plug isn't there either. We are waiting for FieroFlyer to respond to our calls. With that said. Does there exist a cheat sheet diagram available to help me ring out the harness?
Our setup is a 87GT 2.8 harness with 98 Buick 3800SC, 5spd Getrag, A/C, the EGR deleted. Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated. The project is at a standstill.

ANYONE THAT HAS EVER LOOKED AT A 3800 WIRE HARNESS CAN TELL YOU, BOTH The "crank/ cam sensor wires", and the "coil pack wires" are 2 Separate Harnesses that" plug INTO" what he made for you. they are NOT part of the" conversion harness". they are the same for either 3800 NA and 3800SC and can be had off any junkyard 3800

The small harness can be gotten from the junkyards for about $2.00 , any harness I build for someone I try to remember to tell them to keep that section.. I'm sure Danny has it and could send it to you if you sent yours.. probably be easier and cheaper to just make a junk yard run..

First Go Around folks are at a disadvantage when you get your harness and engine in a box. I sent the entire 3800 engine harness and my 2.8 harness. I was told it would be plug and run. My mistake. I did go to the local UPull and picked up the harness piece. 4$ got me the part. Thanks for the guidance.
