T2 swap into 85 charger

[john1320]

Hey there TD people!
Here's the rundown....

I am removing the worn out T1 motor from the 85 Charger, and installing a fresh T2 motor from the 88 daytona.
I understand that this will not be a straight swap, due to differences in the electronics and harness.
I don't have a T2 computer around, just the calibrated 85 from Cindy, which was meant for the Log setup and meth cooling.
Since money is tight atm, what am i looking at for the cheapest way to make it happen? Oh, and the t2 going in has the SS header, so what about brake booster clearance?
The intercooler fitment is taken care of already.
Do we need to change the wiring over, or just parts of the harness?

Thanks guys

On the wiring end you will need to run two wires for the AIS, three wires for the map, and move a couple pins around in the LM. It doesn't take that long if you follow the directions which are in the KC I believe.

You will also need an 87' TII LM, or any 87' LM if you are willing to socket the board and burn a chip.
