I sure wouldn't mind seeing how others are running the wires in their dragsters for efi. When you are talking about the wires for 8 injectors, or 16, 8 coils, and all the different sensors and controls, the amount of wires can really add up. I'm always up for improving my game wiring wise. Every time gets better because I know more about what to plan for. But I'm not terribly proud of either of our cars right now. Our second car came with a pre made ls harness. Really shortened the process, but frankly it has a lot of drawbacks in a dragster. The harness is really made for a door car, and kinda saddles you with routings of wires that you really don't want. So I don't think I will go that route again. Foxtrot Juliet Bravo | |||

OMG yes....I've tried wrapping the wires in a bundle....looks like crap...put everything inside one long piece of heatshrink tube.....looks like crap... Next thing I'm going to try is all the wires going from the ECU up front back to the engine inside one long piece of gray PVC... AND, the worst F'n part is I'm constantly having to access all those wires as I troubleshoot the damn EFI... I raced in Vegas last weekend and just took the throttle body off and put the carb and low-pressure pump back on and it was SO nice to just run the dragster without issues....Until the trans took a shyt anyway.. .

glad I'm not the only one with those issues. I have tried the weave wrap that is split. You can get to wires which is good. The expandable it a PITA to put on, but looks great. But no access to the wires. Foxtrot Juliet Bravo | |||

I just thought of a (maybe) good idea....Split the wires up so drivers side injector wires, sensors, pumps etc go down drivers side of the chassis and passenger side wires go down the passenger side.... 2 much smaller wire bundles instead of one large crap looking bunch of wires.....maybe? .

I used the factory fuel tech harness on my dragster, it has a firewall bulkhead fitting in it mid ways, i made a extension that would go in between the bulkhead fitting to make it work on my dragster.. Ive made a custom harness years ago on my fast setup but never again if I dont have to... what i have isnt the prettiest but it works. J.R.

I make it even more complicated by running the intake backwards as well. Just to be difficult. Mounted my ecu behind the seat in both cars. Landed a bunch of wires nearby with terminal strips. Underestimated how many term strips I would need. Foxtrot Juliet Bravo | |||
