Engine Harness - Which One !

Engine Harness - Which One !
Which is the best engine harness for a 5.0L swap ?
Does year make any difference ?
What if we are not concerned with emissions ?
My situation is this...
2003 Ford Ranger EDGE.
New 5.0L but build around '93 5.0L specs.
Manual trans
Manual T/C
Only concern is engine running properly.

It is an 03 but there will be no need for all the rest of the controlling through the computer.
Manual T/C and Trans, both on their own no computers there.
I did a search on the web for OEM Harnessing for 5.0L Conversions.
All responses lead back to RJM and from the searches the RJM is as close to OEM as you can get. They also sell all of the senses and connectors if needed.
Does anyone know if Ford is still selling their Universal Harnesses and where to buy, maybe a discount ?

My '88 Ranger STX, 5.0L, C4-auto trans worked on a manual computer, so I am really hoping I can get away with it.

OK then I need to remember that for the new computer.
I have contacted RJM and asked what to do, what is needed for a full harness, sensor, etc, package of everything to make the engine run and work as stated above.
Hopefully tomorrow I will get an answer.
Thanks for the input so far, anything else you can come up with would be greatly appreciated.

Computer won't go into limp mode over the auto transmission not being there, on an explorer ECU anyway. I have an M50D 5 Speed in mine using explorer computer with no problem. Just have to cut and splice two wires to fool it into thinking it's in neutral, and even if you don't rewire there are still no problems other than a slight hesitation every once in awhile at low RPM. No limp mode on mine tho, runs awesome
