Question ECU Harness

Does anyone make a adapter harness for ECUs? OR sell the plugs so I can make one?

I'm sending my mustang computer off to get rebuilt, and I figured easiest way to changhe the pin out, would be a harness kind of like this


That would plug into my 5.0 E4OD harness, and than into my mustang computer.

Even if I coud find a plug that is like the female ECU plug, than I could make my own in the comfort of the house instead of trying to change the pinout opn the harness under the hood.

Why do you need adapter?
All the trucks in your post take the same 60 pin plug.
If you need an extension cable with plugs just use the Ford test equipment extension cable.

I want to use a A9L computer in my 94, I meant adaptor harness, as in, I plug one end into my stock pickup harness, and one end into the Mustang computer.

They are both 60 pin plugs like you said, and if I could get the test harness like pictured cheap, and modify it to do the job I want, that would be the ticket. I would have to have acouple wires added in between the plugs for the second O2, and the barametric pressure sensor, and I think thats it..

Am I getting what I want explained well enough? sometimes I cant describe stuff well enough for others to understand.

You don't need an adapter, the EEC connector comes apart so you can easily move and add the necessary wires.

I know that...

I don't want to lay under the hood to do it. It looks like I cant get the harness pulled up and out from under the hood easily to get the wires switched around easily. I have pulled them apart before.. I guess what I'm really looking for is a plug, and pins that is like the plug on the ECU, so I can make a harness to do the computer swap without adding wires to the stock harness..

plugs like the circled ones and the pins so I can wire it up.. I have the vehicle side with the bolt in it that I can use.
