I probably spent the most time on the harness. It's mostly Teflon coated 20AWG wire with Raychem DR25 heatshrink over all the wire bundles. Every split and termination is covered with heatshrink boots and glued using high shear epoxy.



The terminations are labeled using printed heat shrink.



The harness comes through the firewall with a 32 pin MIL-DTL-26482-II bayonet lug connector.



Here's everything in place. There's also a baffled catch can on the left that we built.



The car also got a different headlight/turn signal/grill/hood combo off an early 70s 240 and some new wheels on custom spacers.



By christmas 2013 it was even running and driving.





It still needs quite a bit of tuning, especially in higher boost. In its current state it should be able to make about 400hp reliably.
