What makes using OBD2 system, so much better than OBD1

96 was the first full year. Ford got it at the halfway mark in 95. EEC V. Also, the best answer as to which is better is "it depends". A lot of guys like the OBD1 systems. I don't know all the whys and wherefores, but they do.

You can call the LS stuff "cookie cutter" all you want......and I guess it fits, but lemmie tell you, you talk about REAL plug and play? That's it. The 51 Chevy truck I am building right now on the 95 S10 chassis is gettin a 6.0 LS and 4L80. We have the wiring harness. I was lookin at it today. It is really badass. VERY few wires will have to be terminated. Under ten, I think. It's really nice stuff. No wonder the GM boys are flocking to it and I caint blame them. Having said all that, I still don't care for them. I respect them, sure. Matt's shop truck is a 54 Chevy. 6.2 4L80 and Ford 8.8. That thing pulled 638 HP on a chassis dyno and it almost has a stock idle. This stuff is stupid easy to get power out of.
