get the injector pigtails from summit or Speartech, cut the stock injector harnesses, wire up the pigtails to the stock harnesses, install the injectors, plug in the harnesses

dDo you REALLY need a picture to splice 16 wires ??

BTW....the f-body injectors won't fit on a truck manifold.....they're the wrong length to let the fuel-rail bolt back in to place

ok....sorry if I was a bit harsh

I don't have any pictures but it's pretty simple to do the swap if you have an LS6 manifold, all you need to do is cut each stock injector harness about 3" back from the plug and wire in the new pigtails....it sounds daunting but it's pretty simple (be sure to solder them so the connection is sound), the truck fuel rails won't work with the f-body injectors so you'l need the fuel rails and crossover from a 97-98 C5 Corvette (those are the only ones with a return-type fuel system like the trucks have)

This swap is pretty much a plug and play other than a little bit of soldering to get a good clean wire connection

Good Luck

Here is a page with some pics of swapping to Fbody injectors. Doing it with the LS6 intake and '97 vette rails will be much easier.

I think but, am not positive that the truck regulator will work on the vette rails.
