6.0 with 5.3 harness

I have a 6.0 and harness for 4l80e, I am going to use 4l60e (it was free OK). now I cannot find info on modifying harness to work with the 60 from 80 so I am thinking I can use a 5.3 harness that is already 60e ready. flash PCM with new tranny and other mods to start. anyone done this, and I on the right track? any and all comments/ suggestions are welcome!!

You will need to make sure they both have the same injector plugs though. A 2004 5.3 could have flex fuel injectors that take different plugs.

I will check that out tomorrow. I don't think that truck had the flex fuel badging though. How can I be sure? does that injector have a different look to it? Thanks for the tip by the way.
