ok well on my 302 Carb'ed. i got the car harness. but im missing the wires for the alternator, starter, oil pump, CTS, etc..etc... not sure if i have the hokoups for the back of the dash either

my friend tells me i need a "Engine Harness", yet i can't find one for a carbeurated motor

it's a 1989 4cyl conv with a 85/86 8cyl roller motor

someone told me Painless harness but i haven't found one

if someone will let me know where i can get one, or if i have to just make one that would be great

painless website, or summit racing. you will also need a dash harness from the same year of the engine, but then none of you gauges will work. You cant use the 89 2.3 engine harness and the dash May be compatible with the correct wiring. I am not a big wiring guy but i did swap a 87 2.3 for a 92 5.0. with all the harnesses. That was easy compared to what you have done. Does it run?? All i know about carb'd engines to run is you need spark, fuel, vaccum to get her to run. Also, you need a mechnical fuel pump and lines.
