All the VE swaps ive done ive used the factory harness not the VE harness.


But the harness has two plug sensors that comes off the injector harness. what do i do with that plug?

Take out VVL Inj harness. Put on B14 harness so it pluhs into the B14 main harness

I think you mean purple and brown. Did your VE motor come with the pigtail for the purple plug? The DE uses an older solenoid on the IACV so your DE connector won't fit. If you have the pigtail you can extend the wire and plug it in. I've seen some guys that swap over DE solenoid to the VE IACV and it works fine, that way they can use the DE plug. The two brown plugs should plug right up. The other connectors you'll have is for the EGR temp sensor and the other IAC or whatever it's called (located under the intake manifold plenum on the lowports). I plugged these in on both my VE and zip tied them out of the way under the manifold. You will also need to reroute the vacuum lines that run from you charcoal canister and manifold to the EGR solenoid or whatever it's called. Not sure if someone posted up a diagram of this for you, but you can find them on here for people that don't run EGR. You can also do the resistor mod in the EGR temp sensor plug which I believe was mentioned earlier in this thread.

yeah the VE came with that piece, Its connected to the injector harness. Okay so i cut the wire off the VE harness and route it that way. What do i do with those lines that come from that black cylinder that says (fuel tank) They split off in a T and than theres another big fuel line that i cant find where to hook it up. I already have two big fuel lines hooked up

Also, the VE headers dont bolt on to my DE downpipe. So i have to use my DE headers and downpipe but theres that hole for the EGR pipe. Is there a plug for that or something?

You either have to run your stock header or buy an ebay header. You can buy the EGR bung plug from GregV at GSpec.com.

Okay ill plug it for now haha. Umm so the swap is finished and it started first try. idles nice but right before i was done, i was tightining the headers and i hit the alternator and it sparked and now nothing works. brights work and horn and it starts. but windows, hazards, some of the gauge lights and ac blower ect all that good stuff doesnt work. I checked all the fuses and there arent any blown ones
