This is monumentally simple.
Obtain PCM pinouts for both pcm's
Find differences, which will be very minimal.
Move wires around in the appropriate connectors.
Do research on reversing the wires on the coil packs so they work properly
Just did an '04 Vic. Wiring is the same, some connectors (COP, TPS, Idle control) need to be lengthened. I found a schematic that showed the COPs to be reverse polarity, however, I later discovered this was wrong. Although it could be the case for older/newer vics. I'll try and remember what else I had to modify, but really, it was actually pretty easy. I will add that if you use a teksid block, there are two bungs for knock sensors and the iron block only has one and the thread size is way different.

Sorry about the fuel rail comment, yes use the 2V computer and modify harness as needed.

Wait wait wait! I should have asked... I already have TWO Marauder engine harnesses. Might it be simpler to use those? Changing the pin outs as needed at the PCM connecter?

You will have to verify all bulkhead connectors are wired appropriately
just mod your stock harness. that's what I did mine is running and driven with out a tune. im running 91 octane. and yes im going to get a tune. it will need it to run the way its suppose to. I did mark viii block with marauder heads and intake. but my car is an 03. no return fuel system.
2003 cv sport marauder engine swap. then teksid 4.6 soon to be supercharged.
Just mod the Vic harness. Have to change COP connectors and extend a couple other sensors.
Return or returnless fuel system doesn't make much difference. Vic PCM can be tuned to run either. I have 03' Vic PCM in my box and I am running return fuel system.
Sooooooo. Another issue stemming from this. I have COPs from the Continental I got the heads from. I hadn't bothered looking into getting new coils because I thought I have some. Turns out that the Marauder harness will not plug into the Continental coils. Seems the little alignment tabs are different. Now I have the connectors from the Continental that I can use. The question I have is, other than the connector, how different is the continental cop from those of the Marauder? Are they of the swapped polarity as you guys say the Marauder coils are?
I'd hate to have to buy new coils if the ones I have are in good shape.

Okay... looking at this a bit... I have the Continental COP connectors. I have Marauder wiring harness. Seems the logical and least expensive option is to keep the Continential coils and connectors and then splice those into the native CVPI engine harness.
BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU UUUUUUUT.... Looking at RockAuto.com... the 2001 Continential and 2003 Marauder use the same coils. I am looking at the Motorcraft site and still they list the same 12029 part number, yet the Continential coil does not plug into the Marauder harness...

Get the proper coils

I have an 01 CV and I'm thinking about doing exactly what you are doing with yours. Can you post about problems you run into and hopefully include some pictures?
