Next, SS fuel lines, from Tangerine. These get fed in from the rear.

I had a moment of panic, when I could not find the double-hole rubber grommet for the front bulkhead. After looking in the "right" box and not finding it, I went through all the other boxes. Of course, it was in the right box after all. Good think, since this grommet is NLA.

And a single grommet in one rear hole. I used some teflon spray lube, and fed the fuel line in. Once started, it was actually easy to push it to the front.

Front end of the tunnel, with the lines fed through the double-hole grommet.

One more detail for the fuel lines: fixing them in place using the tabs on the floor of the tunnel, with some rubber hose as protection.

Bonus detail: some more rubber hose collars to keep the lines from vibrating on the rear tunnel floor.

Out with the old list (I will get to painting under the side grills later, and clean the threads as I go).

Finishing up this detour. The fuse-relay panel is clean, and I wired the washer pump switch and relay. The new relay is the one lower left.

I then re-taped the harness, including new wires to the future pump (coil of white and brown). I will cut to fit and add necessary connectors once the pump is installed.

Now for the big job--installing the harness. Not really looking forward to this. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

I will cut to fit and add necessary connectors once the pump is installed. wow! congratulations and nicely done on your wiring too! Can you also share the wiring along the center tunnel all the way to the rear wiring? I’m also going to fix my wiring for my 74. thank you! ooops there you go complete wiring except hardly can look at it because of the floor dynamat color. |

If you mean showing the rear part of the wiring harness and individual connections, look back on this thread for when I had the harness laid-out during and after when I cleaned and repaired it. If you mean showing the installation in the car, stay tuned. |

In All likelihood you have seen it but RD has a pretty good video out there on installing the harness.
Really enjoy your threads. Nice work. |

OK, here we go. Prep: good mood, cold beverage, calm music.
Everything on the cardboard is the rear "half" that goes under the cross brace and all the way back to the tail lights. Attached thumbnail(s) |

To start, I used (mostly) the strategy of feeding the biggest thing through the obstruction first, even if not on the far end of the harness. So here goes the relay board connector under the center tunnel brace.
