I've spent plenty of time with wiring harnesses especially in computers and in my CNC mill, but what you guys have taken on has me really impressed. It's an operation that on the surface seems like a straight forward rewire, but has a number of elemets that have to be dealt with. I'm following your travails in this area. Thanks for posting all the details about this conversion.

Joe, I'm especially impressed with your L92 project. That thing has to rock! You should be very proud of that hot rod you've built.

Richard
I especially thankfull to you for the great work and customer service you provided during the build.

latest update:

Doing the parts shuffle on the 3rd muffler. The one I ordered has an internal Y, doh!; need dual 3" straight through style. I just don't see any benefit to necking down dual 3" pipes to a single 3" and then back to dual 3", to much restriction; the solution is on order, however, that puts a slight delay on the finish date....LOL! although I wasn't really laughng about it yesterday.

time to take a day off and enjoy the holiday!

looking good man, question though, when you do the wiring harness how are you slipping the heat shrink over the connectors? pull each pin out? I'm planning on hiding my harness too and pondered about this for a while.
