    Bro.. I couldn't have done it without you. After 2 years of trying to find someone to wire my 81 El Camino for me, I decided to do it myself. I watched hours of videos and was still confused.. until I found this one. Thanks for posting ✊🏾💯

    Thank you for this. I am using the same wire kit for my 75 f250. I have searched all over UA-cam for someone with the same harness. I definitely and intimidated but your description detail helped calm me down. I saved it for constant go backs when I am stumped. Thank you for this!!

      Thank you! It's a pretty straight forward job! Especially if you aren't switching to fuel injection!
      Fuel injection is straight forward too, but you'll have to plan ahead a little more!

      It's a very intimidating process. There are a ton of wires, but just knocking out a little at a time has been the best approach for me. Can't wait for the EFI

    Thank you for the great explanation! I’m planning on ordering this kit for my truck. I just had a question as far as relays, are they needed to run this kit?

    • @JakeHarrington
      @JakeHarrington  Рік тому

      If you have an electric fan setup, or an electric fuel pump drawing big amperage, it might be necessary. What is your setup?

    • @dominiccapone7147
      @dominiccapone7147 Рік тому

      It’s a carbureted 350 with mechanical fuel pump and hei. The fan I was thinking about ordering a separate relay kit for simplicity. As far as pump I was also planning on putting a inline pump since it’s takes a while to get up to the mechanical pump.

    • @dominiccapone7147
      @dominiccapone7147 Рік тому

      The truck kinda turned into a wiring nightmare, the harness was solid and I did the swap. I had to move it around while it was apart and broke the column, so I grabbed one from the junkyard. I guess it had a short and I was having issues. So I decided to build a whole simple harness for the truck from scratch since the drivetrain doesn’t need much. Now I’ve gone 2 years back and forth and I want to use something that is straightforward.
