ignition switch/push button start
Can it be done with the factory harness and PCM? I seen a few f body guys doing the push button but they still needed the key. I wont have a key. I will be running the ART sportsman steering column. I was hoping I could run the painless switch panel. THIS IS NOT FOR THE TRUCK IN MY SIG.

Just my personal opinion guys, don't take it personal.
This is a pretty easy job to do, there is no chip in the key but there is a sensor in the ignition cylinder that detects a key (or any other metallic object) if the truck is started without a key detected the pcm kills the engine to prevent theft.

This is going in a 1992 silverado. 6.2 swap turbo...pretty much a drag truck that will see the street. I'm hoping I can use the e38 harness that came with the motor. But haven't figured out if I can run a electronic throttle body with a full Manuel valve body transmission. Harness companies are telling me I can't. And there is no way to convert the harness. The push button Ithink I can figure out but how do you use a switch for the ignition? I'm really trying to keep the fuel injection but the further I go I just want to throw a carb on it.
