Unfortunatley my motorset didn't come with the lower RB harness. I was wondering if I could work around this and use my stock KA24DE harness or would it just be easier and save more time to get the RB lower harness? Just wondering how much modification is needed to make the lower KA harness work?

My RB25 did not come with one either. they are similar--Batt. to starter,alt. ECT...you need to be friends with your FSM wiring diagram anyway to integrate the motor. Take your time. I renewed allot of the wire anyway because the KA's was a little green and nasty--works great!!!!!!

Kamin is right, using the KA lower is the best way to go anyways. Averything will pretty much match up, only one plug on the starter is different, but you can still use the KA one (I did anyways).

Awesome. I was under the impression that ALOT of plugs were different on the RB. This should make things alot easier!
