White's '95 GT "Unicorn"

Moving along with the wiring. So far I’ve gotten the knock sensors connected and I’ve moved on to the IAC and TPS.

Switched power that remains constant during cranking.



All splices are soldered and covered with heat shrink. This was the constant power that goes to the distribution block on the battery.



Fuel pump relay and related wiring.



This is still a mess but I refuse to make any battery connections until I’m ready to start cycling power systems.



Does anyone else sign their work area? I do. This is the route for the battery relocation wiring and the Holley power.



Holy CRAP... It goes into the body



The knock sensor wiring was as simple as removing the sub-harness and connecting it to the HEFI harness.



The aforementioned IAC and TPS wiring will run underneath the intake and, once the connectors are swapped, will be a very clean install I think.

Very very nice!!! All that hard work will pay off in the end! I'm sure as much attention to detail as you're taking all should go well!! (Figners crossed for ya!!)

I would suggest moving the wiring down closer to the seat on the side than towards that plastic panel. The panel is held on by those torture devices that slide over the pinch welds and then have teeth to grip the metal. They can grab a wire as well

Need to add four new wires to the J1B connector for the new IAC and then it’s just a matter of activating it in the software.



I’ve forgotten what a semi complete interior looks like. Can’t wait to be “finished building” so I can clean and paint the interior and body!

Good point.

Man, I sure hope so. Things rarely go my way with this nag.

why would the iac need 4 new wires?

It’s a stepper motor of the GM variety and it has a four wire connector.

Btw... Don't know if this will help you out with your swap or not but stumbled upon it in my interwebs travels and thought of you and @ttocs .

It will withstand up to 150c deg of heat and is available in more than just 2 wires, they also have multiple wire core as well....

isn't there 2 wires already in the harness for the iac?

It will withstand a nuclear explosion...

Nah, I could still fuck it up.

Read what I just posted in what did you do to your car today... Talk about fucking shit up...

My new throttle body uses GM IAC and TPS.

hahaha RRR

That always brings imagines from a simpler time to mind!

Small but meaningful progress today. Pulled this triple gauge panel out for @lwarrior1016 sinxe he traded me the lower radiator hose I needed for it.



Found out this random connector I’ve held on to fits the TPS sensor in my new throttle body.



Connected the Holley input wire for the HVAC controls and that’s about where I’ll stop today.





This how the Holley will control my AC, for those interested:
