Alright so id like to start by saying i finally got my ecu to wake up, however i put the crank sensor on wrong and the trigger ate it and bent it self in the process due to my idiocy, but the good thing is i figured out a few things abput this swap that might help some of yall down the road if your swapping this engine into something, now with that being said the ECU i am using is for a 1990 MTX with a 1989 CCRM "M" code and wile yes you do need to power pins 1, 37 and 57 the way you do that is through the ccrm with pins on the ccrm being 1, 8, 10, 12 and pin 13 on the ccrm is ignition and pin 15 is what gives ground to pins 40. And 60 on the ECU
While yes the (How to guide) on swapping the sho into the other women guide is useful it doesnt really tell you where you should be connecting the power to also this shpuld go without saying it helps out ALOT to have the correct schematics for your swap, i hope this helps anyone who is stuck on their swap, yes i know i need to flip the intake and i am in the process of doing that i already have the harness extended this is just from one of the test fits i did with the engine in the car1000043839
