Were there any resources for the changing the pinouts of the fuse boxes? I'm currently in the middle of an L61 to LAP swap and running into issues figuring out the wiring harness situation.

Not trying to hijack thread but I have a question directly related. It seems that you can swap a LAP into an L61 Cobalt as long as it is an 07-08 L61? What if you had an 06 L61? Is there anything that would swap in other than other 05-06 L61? What would it take to swap from an 06 l61 ECU to an 07 ecu?
Basically I have an 06 L61 and I am trying to see if I have any options if my block blows up. I would like to get away from the 06 ECU so I have tuning options. If I go to the trouble of any engine swap I think it would be counter productive to go back in with the 06 ECU. But I don't really know what options I have.

i cant comment on 05-06. what i can say is i have completed an lap - late l61 swap. my shop bought a 2011 hhr with 2.2l lap, engine was toast. also had a smashed up 2008 l61 with a good engine. i swapped the entire cradle, engine, trans, wiring harness, ecm and tcm from the 08 to the 2011, did a security relearn and away it went. im sure an lap would go right into an 07-08 l61 car providing you swap the engine, harness and ecm, and both harnesses are either auto or manual.
