Are you seriously asking if a std V6 engine harness will plug in on a V8 ???

If you are, might consider shelving the conversion plans now.

Don't know which 5.0 you want to use, but I will go out on a limb here and say ....... NO.

If the engine loom itself is spliced in then no but if the vp body loom is spliced in and the engine and computer loom might plug in but don't forget you got engine mounts and bell housing which may not fit either
