Mil-spec connector help please

[jh99]

I am working on routing the LS3 wiring harness through the firewall on my 67 Nova. I am looking at Deutsch mil-spec connectors. Does anyone know which connectors I might need? There are so many to choose from. Part numbers would be a big help too. Thanks.

Check out http://www.iimuchfabrication.com/. John has these as a kit. I used one for my Accel setup and it has worked great. I had to pull my engine out 3 times and thank goodness I had this setup to make disconnecting a breeze.

I talked to John yesterday about his connectors. Do you have any pics of yours installed? I'm worried these might be too large.

These things are crazy difficult to track down what you want exactly. We used to use on big connector. But for instance the LSA engine has 78 wires I think. That is a massive connector. So we have begun using 4 20 pin connectors. The connectors are easy its all the accessories that make the install cleaner. The front and back shells really make the install that much cleaner but not alot of people sell them. Then do you want straight or 90 degree back shells. I have thought about creating a short kit like John as apparently done to just sell the connectors we stock. I got mine through an aviation company in Nevada. They have millions of part numbers.

I will see what I can come up with. To get you some more info.

If you have part numbers I can look around.

After all the work I have put in to find these that we use. I'm a lot more likely to sell them through my shop then just give out the part numbers. You may or may not be surprised how hard it is to just get these part numbers.

The variables on each of these connecters is crazy. Plus the expensive tool you will have to buy in order to assemble the pin connectors.
