yes the wiring is different and you will need it so you have the right computer for the motor
 
picked up the motor (01 from and exploer) entire vehicles wiring harness. so this motor is going into a race truck (off road dersert racing) and and bunch of this stuff i dont need. but im trying to figure out what exactly i can get ride of to still have a good runing motor. im having a computer built with a chip and having the pats removed. but im wondering about all the emision crap and vacum lines etc.. heres a pic of what im talking about. do i need this? can i get ride of the egr and bypass the whole emmision? how? what? where? some picss...

k well im stumped on how to load pics. little help??
 
Find an engine harness and PCM from a 97 Explorer with the SOHC - almost a direct swap except for a few pins in the harness that will have to be swapped, but you can check the EVTM's for each vehicle and figure those out.

That's basically what I did with the Splash...............
