Purchase a wiring harness for the 2008 engine? In 2007 I think GM introduced VVT or variable Valve timing to the 3.5 I would think you will need to pick up a used ECM for a 2007 or newer G6 and reflash it for your conversion. Check with a mechanic on this one.

The car is a 2008 but the engine that was swapped in is from a 2006. So i need to swap the harness for the map sensor or the intake.
