need advice...engine wiring harness replacement question
 
While doing an engine replacement, I want to reterminate my wiring. I was looking at classicchevy website and noticed they sell an engine wiring harness built to OEM specs.

My question is does just the engine wiring disconnect from this underhood block, or will it be an entire assembly replacement?

theres pooky on each connector so I can tell and I dont want to mess anything up.

this is for my 1976 c15 gmc 350 w/gauges and hei

For the most part, the wiring from the engine side connects through a plug with the wiring from the body/bed side. So if the wiring you're talking about is supposed to be OEM replacement, it should simply plug into the connector beneath the steering column.

so if I remove the center bolt, I can remove the junction block assembly, then access the individual harness plugs seperately?

theres just so much pooky on there I dont want to mess anything up

If this harness you're talking about is truly OEM quality and style, it should come with the plug ready to snap into the firewall connector. Just pull the old one out and plug in the replacement. If it doesn't have that feature, it sure isn't OEM style.
