That's the difference between OBDI, and OBDII. On the OBDI trucks, the harness is exactly the same for both v-8s. It's a difference in the year of the truck, not the size of the motor.

Ooohhh, that's a valid point as well. Would certainly explain some things..... Try and find a manifold in the junkyard from a 94 or 95 360. Get the whole thing, manifold, fuel rails, injectors, as much as you can.
