60lb injector help

alright heres my dilemma, i have 42 installed right now and im upgrading to 60s, well the harness i have that came wit the injectors doesnt fit, i think the harness is from a LSJ and the injectors are Siemens and EV1 style. would it be safe to just splice and wire into my harness i have already?

that wat i was plannin on doin but when i look at the wires the colors are different and i dont wanna get any mixed up. would it help if i took pics of the harnesses and injectors for ease of assistance?

well after lookin at the wires i see there is for example a red wire and a green wire wit a white stripe, im guessing i splice the 60# injectors using red to red and the 2 other colors connect to each other?

Well when i got my harnes it had just the pins at the end and no black plastic connector..
So when i went to repin it i just looked and my stock injector connector and took out then replaced the pin with the one from the lsj connector.. if u look at the connector closely they have two letters on them.. one on each side A&D

Lemme know if u r getting me so far?

hmm, if its that easy and fast i might just go that way about it, thanks

alright, i got my 42s off my car and i put my 60s in the fuel rail to keep fuel from comin out, can you walk me thru the process of wat to do?

yeah its simple man.. just have both harnesses in front of u.. as u get one pin?wire out put the one from the other harness in.
Just make sure when u start to take off the lil purple clip thing holding the wires into the connector. then just get some needle nose pliers and just gently wiggle and push em out from the front.
And i thing u should only be pulling five wires from ur stock.. 1 for each injector and 1 ground which is the one on the bottom row of the connector. The other ones on the bottom belong to ur MAP sensor..

Am i making any sense?
