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").

Satisfied customer...

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.

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!

Just looking at your harnesses Bowlsby... what an excellent job..

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.

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.

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!

Outstanding work Jeff.

I just recieved my new harness and it looks to be superbly made.

I drug my feet on this (too!). Harness will be coming soon Jeff. I'll email ya.

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.
Is it possible?

Sure Rich...ask and ye shall receive. The details are on my website.

I even have a very limited supply of the OEM rubber boots that I save for just the right cars...Ask Tom Bliznik how he likes the FI harness I sent him with the grey casing and OEM boots.

I will send you a PM.

Yes ask me, the workmanship and quality is better than OEM.

Tom Bliznik

Have you talked to Bruce Napier about reproduction boots?

Ditto, I agree...better than OEM. Very much the key to a dependable Fuel Injected 914

Hi Mark, I have thought about reproducing the boots, and may some day, but the boots I use are very high quality and the small quantities needed for boots, probably wouldnt be cost effective.

Thanks for the kudos Tom and Martin.

Hey Bowlsby.

Just a Christmas question (for my wife).

Do you have X-Mas gift certificates?????????

If so, let me know so my wife can read this!!!!


Tom

Just recieved my Alt. harness, It's the quality that we have grown to expect from Jeff. Next will be engine bay harness. Thanks Jeff!!!
Dave

I have some great new 914 wiring harnesses on the website. Please stop by and take a look.

Jeff,
How about battery to starter? It's the only one left for me.

Jeff rebuilt my entire harness, and when I say entire I mean just that, every component was removed from the car and shipped to Jeff to evaluate and rebuild. Know what? Every light, switch, instrument, etc. works perfectly!!! Jeff is the best.

That battery + cable is one cable I do not make Kevin. You are the first to ask in all the years I have been doing these harnesses. I am sure a good used cable is available from other sources.

for someone looking for a harness.

Question, do you have front electrical harnesses (headlights, turnsignals, etc)? Or would you need me to send mine for a correct rebuild, as mine has been hacked to no longer make sence by my POs. Thanks

Hi Nathan, I responded to your email separately, but for the benefit of anyone looking here, I only make the harnesses and wiring products on my website found here:

http://bowlsby.net/914/WiringHarnesses/

Jeff,

Great work and great service. Just got my harness today for my 73 1.7.

Thanks for your work on these cars.

Rob

Boy that was quick, Thanks.

In my first life I was a time study engineer. Spent a tour in the cable assembly plant at Tektronix. Nice work.

I'll probably be buying a couple more in the coming years. Keep up the good work. Both cores will be coming shortly.

Thanks Cary!
