also check where the fusebox assembly sits as some sit in engine bay
and ive seen cobras with fuses and relays boxes in engine bay and they look crap

i just did a cobra loom where the holden dealer supplied a ve loom since engine was ve
well they just dont suit the cobra well so i ended buying a different loom and sat ecu under dash
and got another full rewire to do on cobra at moment
so there is afew little things to look out for
a usa corvette maf has same plug and pin config as the ve maf so that side of it should be right
u just need tune to suit the maf
How do you know they are crap if you need ask those questions about it?

Their loom is divided into cockpit side and engine side with a grommet in the middle. Cockpit includes ECM, pedal, fusebox, wires for optional connection to tach and speedo. Also includes wires for fan.

I am only buying the harness as i already have an E38 with the HSV tune and no security so yes tuning of the ECU is not problem.

LS1 Swap | LS1 Conversion | EFI Conversion | Wiring Harness | Fuel Injection Conversion | EFI Kit | Standalone Wiring Harness for LS1 LS2 LS3 LS6 LS7 LS9 LSA LSX Vortec - Performance Systems Integration

I will probably need to still modify the length but that is no problem. I was going to make my own harness and just by connectors and wire but it doesnt come out much cheaper when you are paying retail prices for the parts.

Sorry I'm talking bout the gmmp harnesses
They might be better these days
I'm just says what to look for

They are not crap more of a nuisance s u have to add afew extra wires
Which would have cost a buck to fit to the orig loom when making them
Most these cheap looms are the bare essentials to get motor running
Just remember the pedal plug is different
They use a different pedal
U cannot run an Aussie tune on USA pedal
U might be ble to fix it in the tune or change the pedal plug

I'm merely stating the issues I've had in past
We have fixed afew issues with gmp looms and ecus in the past
It's just these people don't speak up with the issues they have had

But for the price u can't beat them
If they looked nice I would by them myself and mod them to suit
But that's my opinion
But if I was building a cobra I would use them too

Sorry, just realised i read your post wrong. I thought you said they are crap but you said cheap.

Thanks for the pedal info. Am i correct thinking there are only 2 types, Ls1 and 6lt/6.2?

Yes there are two Aussie pedals
Ls1 blue sticker
Ls2 e38 ecu white sticker

But there is USA pedal too so if u buy loom from USA it will have a USA type of plug
So u need to change the plug to suit Aussie pedal or use USA pedal and change tune
