I spent several long months on my wiring. I tried to make it as neat as possible along the way.
With an LS swap, you gotta have wires but they can be hidden and routed neatly. Black braided loom make it blend in.
LS1 from an '02 TransAm in my '67.
With VA AC and all the hoses, I just didn't have room to cram the ECM and the fuses behind the dash.
I mounted the PCM on the back of the core support down low and out of the way.
I built a load center for the fuses and relays and mounted it right above the PCM.
Re-routed all the headlight and turn signal wires as well as the engine wires that come out of the firewall bulkhead connector.
I do have some wires behind the engine but they are all out of sight.
