    To put a 6NZ together with an ACERT harness, you'll need to switch pins 11 and 21 on the ECM plug, as well as lengthen the alternator wires (because it's on the passenger side on a 6NZ). Pretty simple fix. I just built a '13 389 glider with a 6NZ, the gliders are delivered with an ACERT harness.

    If my memory is working, on the door jamb is a sticker that states something to the effect that altering the truck in a way that changes it's emissions is unlawful. So putting an older year in a truck is illegal.

    I was just needing to find out if the cab to engine harness can be used or does it have to be
    modified?

    I wouldn't think that it is the same, there is more stuff that the ECM monitors on the SDP versus all the other Acerts.

    Looks like you only switch 4 wires around on the cab side.
