Re: 730 ECM Swap

[WEG1192@aol.com]

You know, I've put up with this for long enough. I did NOT get involved with 
this thread to steal your GD part number. I did it for the good of the list, 
hard as that is for you to believe. I was going to order a bunch of parts and 
was just trying to find out if I could help out by getting the header while I 
was at it. I was going to Email my contact at Packard for help in identifying 
the exact part number to eliminate any confusion since yours and my part 
numbers have differed over the last few days. I have a bag of yellow 
connectors in my hand and they still don't match the part number Dan quoted 
today. I don't have a MAF car so I didn't know for sure if the same black 
connectors for a '165 fit a '730. Still am not sure. Dan Townsend seemed to 
want to take over so I let him. Its as simple as that. Anything else you read 
into it is your paranoid belief that I am stealing your info. I have tried to 
be civil over the last few days and just take this crap and name calling, but 
I have my limits, so back off. If Steve Ravet or any other administrator asks 
me to leave this list, I'll do so, but I am not leaving on your account, so 
stop trying so hard.  I didn't intend to be a catalyst for change, but you 
just don't realize that there is more to a fuel injection system than the 
tuning. I could have just lurked in the background like a bunch of other 
guys, but I was too excited about finding this site to stay quiet. I have a 
customer in Canada who wants to put TBI on his '77 Cadillac and a turbo on 
his Jeep Wagoneer. I am "helping him" get it all together for a fee. He 
doesn't have my engineering background and I don't have his tooth pulling 
background, so I see no harm in charging for my help. He just wants his car 
back on the road again. As for my post the other day about unfair treatment, 
when I first found this site, I saw all kinds of "products" for sale on the 
GMECM site, so why should I have thought charging for a few menial labor 
intensive tasks was against the "rules". I realize you really enjoy posting 
to this site, and I had no reason to harm you or anyone else. But Shannen and 
you started this mess and it ends right here. From now on, I won't post 
again, but I'll have sympathy for the next poor soul who I see (yea, I'm 
gonna lurk from now on) humbly asks you a question only to get told "if you 
haven't read 6 years of archives, don't bother me." I'm sure you were a 
beginner at least once in the life of this list.   JW

Below is an Email I got today from Packard on the ESC module connector and 
the TBI injector connector. Once I had the connector part numbers for a '165 
identified, I was going to ask her for the corresponding header part number 
to get it all straight. I was going to wait until I had all the part numbers 
identified before posting the excel file to the incoming site. But since you 
need proof of my intentions, I'll post it now if I can figure out how.

John,

The two way connector is our P/N 12020549.  I believe that the 5way
connector is P/N 12020646 however the pictures are very blurry and some
features are indistinguishable, so I would suggest that you send us a sample
to conclusively determine its identity. 

Thanks
SD
