Re: 85 GMC Sierra "Scarlett"

While Chris focused on the main harness, I worked on the prepping the core support filler panels for install, along with several other small parts. Once he finished the main harness we had to route and fine tune it. We ran the bulk of the wires under the brake booster then relocated and rotated the power distribution block. That will allow us to run the wire out of view as much as possible.

To ensure that the routing would work we installed the water pump, followed by the alternator, then routed the fuel lines. The alternator wires had previously been repaired and were now too short to allow proper routing. We had to extend the wires and were able to find a clean path.

From there I worked my way down to the starter wires. I cleaned and reshaped the battery power cable then added a clamp to the oil pan studs. I tucked everything away from the headers for heat safety.
