No build yet. I recently moved house, and bought a Ducati. So I've been a bit preoccupied.

Yes I can, but for a 944 I will need a pattern to follow, I only have a 968 cable currently, with 500 degree insulation I recon £75, if that’s not outrageous, I have spent a fortune on tooling and plugs

thanks for the cable I have most of the parts in stock now but not the plug housings yet

I will get it all made except for the loom connector, I can just clip that on when it arrives

Ever considered making various part looms like Lindsey, or even full looms for "friends" Waylander?

what a full car loom,

what a huge undertaking that would be, the peg jigs all the cable and plugs grommets and terminals, god no,

you have Autosparks for that kind of work, what do lindsey make, or more to the point buy in from a harness maker

You're right, I should have said engine bay/lighting. Lindsey sell various engine harnesses, up to what they call a full engine control harness for $500, probably £500 by the time it landed here. Pics of all the harnesses they sell are on their website.

Yes I had a quick look, they look easy enough to make, the problem is not the junior timer plugs, but it’s the ecu plug pins, they have to be bought by the 1000, the plugs for the charging harness I really struggled to find somewhere to buy them, in less than 12,000 minimum order most required, I still had to buy quite a large number, most of which will end up in the recycling

Jeez. I've got the harness that came with a 944 2.7 engine I bought years ago. I'll dig it out sometime and see how it compares to my turbo harness. May be useful for a template.
