I worked on the car a few more hours today. I repinned the harness for the MAF conversion. I also made the hole larger where the cruise control stuff comes out so I can run the harness out through there. I'm wanting to keep the cruise control, but if there isn't enough room I will delete it.


Harness repinned with MAF connector.


Cruise control servo and entry to the cabin.



Hole made bigger.



I split a piece of vacuum hose and glued it around the hole to keep the wires from chafing. I will have to come up with some sort of boot to cover it. I'm thinking of pulling the other harness you see hanging into the car and feeding it through the new hole. Also possibly doing the same thing on the other side.

I like the idea of pulling the wires right from the inside of the car to the fender without them passing into the engine bay, that I drilled a hole on the passengers side too. Next will be a hole just above the trans tunnel for the injector harness to come out. That way you won't see any wires except the plug wires. I still have to figure out a few more things, but it's slowly coming a long.



I accomplished a little more. The engine harness is starting to take shape. I realized I'm going to have to make some of the wires longer. The A/C low pressure sw and coil are 2. The brake M/C sw and the hood light if I keep them. Will not plugging in the M/C sw set off a code?
