Will you eventually have to extend or shorten any of the wires or harnesses once you decide where they'll live permanently?

Some fusebox wires will likely have to be extended, but I have a whole spare harness so I can join 2 ends together instead of splicing in extra sections of wire. Keeps wire color coding consistent and makes it so there is only one splice instead of two

Tracing and labeling each individual wire to build a new harness from scratch. It's taking some time...

Finished drawing a full color diagram to the ECU 60 pin to engine harness. Going to have this one laminated and put up in the garage to help with making the new harness. I'll eventually get it drawn up in a schematic drawing program

Wiring does not seem like a fun thing to do for someone with color vision deficiency like myself haha.

I used a program in college that was fantastic for drawing up electronic schematics. I have no idea if its available to the public or if its even still around, but if I find it, I'll post it in here.

Pulled the engine for the re-ring and cleaning, going to freshen a few things up. Also pulled the subframe to clean it
