Swap Pictures...THERE REALLY ARE PICTURES NOW!
I said they would be up last thursday, well, I have the pictures, but a combination of laziness and being busy fixing my AC and get some real spring on my car so I didn't bottom out on the new exhaust have kept me from scanning them. By the end of the week I will have them up, I would say most likely tomorrow. The pictures aren't really in order, but you can figure it out.

Seen here is the wiring of the harness on the car. The large rubber boot to the right of the split goes into the firewall and the PCM goes on the end. The black box to the left of the split is the main engine connector. This has a brakcet that holds it to the fenderwell, it was left positioned in the factory position.

The engine is in! The wires by the cowl had not been wrapped yet in case we ran into a problem and had to switch something around. they are wrapped now and tucked in behind.

Here you see the wiring on the engine. On the Mark the wiring actually connects to the harness on this side of the motor so all these wires were lengthened so they could reach around to the other side of the car. This is the same wire bunch seen by the cowl in the above picture. The connector on the end of the wires mates with the left connector in the top picture.

The car with no engine. The bar across the tranny was temporarily placed there to hold it up. That is the new torque converter seen in there, lined up on the shaft and ready to get the flywheel up next to it so it can be bolted together.

The engine suspended from the ceiling, unless there is an I-Beam in your ceiling, I don't recommend trying this at home.
