I am about to start installing the plumbing and wiring on my bare body shell, and figure to start with things that go in the tunnel. I have ready:
brake line fuel lines accelerator cable clutch cable speedo cable wiring harness From past experience, any words of wisdom on the best order? |

I would do;
Brake line Fuel lines Wiring harness Speedo cable Clutch cable Throttle cable You have to be careful that the throttle cable doesn’t get wrapped around the clutch cable which I’ve had happened several times. You’ll know this is incorrect when you push on the clutch and you’ll get minor movement from the throttle pedal..! |

I would leave the cables out until the engine is in, seen several new cables mangled during other work.
