I am running a GM Performance wiring harness with ECU, pedal and everything needed for the swap. The cam sensor that came with the motor has a different plug. It has the same amount of contacts(2) but the plug on the harness would not plug into it. I cut the little guide in it and it plugged right in but won't read it. Would I have to put another cam sensor off another car or does domebody sell a harness for this.
Any help would greatly be appreciated!!!!!

I've usually found if the cutout in the plug is different it's so the wrong sensor or harness lead can't be plugged in, like in the case of 1 bar vs 2 bar map sensors. In that case you can modify the slot and it'll physically work, although it may not be correct depending on map vs n/a or blown engines. On TPS switches I've had some combos where the leads had to be changed around in the plug to work correctly, when using one type of harness/ecu and a sensor from something different. It's quite possible that either the sensor has to be changed, or the wires may need to be in different slots on the plug to work correctly.
