We can trouble shoot the system with a GM Tech 2 and the factory wiring manual. Some of the connectors are hard to find but over the last couple years Ryan has found them all. He does like MIL Spec connectors which drive the price up a bit but allows the engine or other harness to be removed from the main body harness.

To get all the wire in the correct gauge and strips Ryan had to order some of it custom. A bit over kill but it is nice to have the OE wire style and color coding.

If you have the ability and tools to do it, it's the only way to do it right.

Where do you source your wire?

We had Wyetch and Terminal Supply quote the order the used the two quotes to get a better price. We ended up getting the wire from Terminal Supply in Troy MI to save shipping.

Yes that's him Greg.

Mark, would Ryan sell me a connector for the Delphi ABS module?
If so, could you post or PM me his contact info?

Thanks

We will build the engine harness then dyno with its correct harness.

I'm obviously not an engineer so I'm just trying to comprehend how much time it would take me to plan-out a complete wiring system, starting with just wire, a fuse box, and a bunch connectors... I'm guessing a full week of just drawing the schematic, another week to plan-out routing, probably 2 weeks to install all the connectors, and another full week for complete installation! I cant say it doesn't look like fun, though! Any tips you feel like posting for this part of the project will be much appreciated, Mark!

Mark, if your car already has provisions for wheel speed sensors what would be a good cost estimate to install ABS? I know you need wheel speed sensors, some sort of controller and some wiring. I am surprised no one is offering a kit yet, at least that I have seen, my guess it is a concern of liability that is preventing a retail solution.

Keep up the great work, cant wait to see the next update.
