I have the new alt. harness, and I must say the quality is outstanding. If I ever go back to FI, I will buy the new harness to rule out any wire problems (you know, cuz FI has many "issues").

I just installed my new injection harness and could not be more pleased. The quality of material, workmanship, and instructions is excellent. This item cured an intermittant misfire problem that I had and the engine has never run smoother. Highly recommended! Thanks, Bowlsby. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

I received my harnesses yesterday and they're absolutely wonderful. The care taken with them really shows; this is work of the highest caliber. In addition to the excellent quality of the goods, Jeff is a wonderful person to deal with. He was extremely kind in working quickly for me as I had a limited amount of time available in which to complete my repair job, and his communications with me were prompt and pleasant.

If you need wiring harnesses, this is the place to get them. Accept no substitutes!

I just got mine in the mail and removed the old FI and Engine harness tonight. Man I knew my old ones were crap but wow they are shot.

Jeff's wires look very solid and well done. The test will be when I plug them in. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Jeff,
my car's engine harness is stiff. Car has carbs now, if I sent you the old one, could you duplicate it? If so how much $ and how much time?

thanks,
sean

As long as we're on the subject I have to ask again. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Jeff, can you go through my /6 harness (complete) and check/repair/replace as necessary?

Sean and Mike G, PM sent and posted here too:

Sean: Sure...if by 'engine harness you refer to what I call the ignition harness...the stock FI and carb set-up are very similar. I can just delete the AAR wire and voila...

Or if you need a very customized harness I would need to see your harness...

Mike: Sure...If there are any critical connector housings that are missing we wil need to find replacements...but the wiring and wire terminals and casing we can tackle...

Thanks Jeff. I'll dig out my harness this weekend and get it cleaned up and have a look at it.

Do you do L-jet harnesses and what kind of prices are we talking about?

Hi Eric, while I dont rebuild the L-Jet FI harnesses, I do repair them. The pricing all depends on what needs to be done. If you will send it to me I offer a no-cost repair estimate.

I do rebuild the alternator and engine harnesses for the L-Jet cars though...

See my website for details.

Jeff,

While looking over Gint's harness, might you be able to duplicate parts of it (engine harness) using a 74 FI harness as a donor? I'm putting a carb'd six in mine. Karl mentioned some similarities while lunching at the MWC but I don't recall...

Not possible Eric...

The Sixer engine bay harness integrates all engine bay functions...ignition, alternator, battery cable to starter, oil pressure/temp and other things into one harness with about half a dozen special connectors and parts that are NLA anywhere. Believe me I have tried to find donor harnesses and there are none to be had inexpensively. Even the early 911 Sixer harnesses use different parts and a donor is very $$$.

I will be upgrading my engine within the next few months. I´ll have Jake Raby built my engine with 103mm Nickies. The engine configuration will include 4IDF Webbers carbs. I would like to use this opportunity to replace my 30 year old harnesses. Which harnesses do I need to change? My car is a 1974 with the 2 liter engine.

BTW, I bought the early 914/914-6 left gauge which incorporates the oil temp readout. Would this gauge effect the harness

Anyone who attends the WCC 2005 will have an opportunity to not only see my wiring harnesses, but will also have the opportunity to win Gift Certificates good towards new harnesses for your car.

See you in Camarillo!

Just recieved my engine harness. Will be installing soon. The quality of his work is excellent. If your harness is suspect, Jeff is the right guy to deal with!

Jeff while I am happy with my FI harness and egarly anticipate applying to my restored LE, the CW part of me cant help but wish that the shielding/cover were the OE grey rather than the black. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif)
Is it possible?
