190 connections times 12 feet = a whole lot of wire.

Thank you!

This link is the best link I can find on the xfi box: https://www.summitracing.com/parts/fst-301000 And here is the best pics of the XIM box: https://www.summitracing.com/parts/fst-305008 The pics on the FAST site aren't any better.

The best pics of the connectors are in the FAST links above and these Summit links: https://www.summitracing.com/parts/fst-301000k - there are three black male connectors and on blue connector in this listing. https://www.summitracing.com/parts/fst-301315k - the two large black connectors, one...

I've decided to put the brain boxes for my EFI (FAST XFI & XIM boxes) behind the drivers seat of the '59 El Camino project. To do this, I need to grow the wiring harnesses about 11 feet but going with 12 to be safe. I like the idea of not easily seeing the electronics under the dash or in the...

Or other? I'm getting ready to send my trim out for polishing, I just don't have the time. I ran across this piece and I don't recognize it. It is 64.25 inches long. Any ideas?

Why have a 6 pack when you can have a 12 pack?!

I ordered a set of electric windows from Nu-Relics with their crank switches - https://www.nu-relics.com/59-60-El-Camino-Front-Door-Regulators-p/25980-2.htm I'd like a set for the vent window, but their kit for the vent window doesn't have a crank switch option -...

Thanks Don! Guess I'm getting she's getting a better brain box. After all, she'll call me if she breaks down. Might as well pay for sanity. @Don Jacks I could use a little more help with double checking parts. Which of these three makes sense? 1 - I think this will do the job, once I get the...

Thanks for the heads up Don! I do want to juggle costs and capability for sure. What problems for a daily cruiser might my Mom experience if I stick with MEFI? I'd hate to stick her with a problem just as much as have her spend money for capability she won't use.

I talked with the local distributor this week and he says the Ram Jet 350 comes with a brain box and the default setup should be fine with the manual transmission. I'll let you know how it goes.

Thanks for all the input and quick responses! Given likelihood of modifying the floor pan, and everything involved, I'm not going to be ahead for costs or ease of install. Here is the actual transmission I'll going with, a GM rebuilt 4L75: https://www.gmperformancemotor.com/parts/19368615.html...

I have Mike's crossmember for the 700R4 transmission and the original crossmember as well. Not sure if I'd have to change that as well.

I'm about ready to pull the trigger on the automatic transmission I want, but based on the info in another project I have, I got to thinking about going to a manual transmission with a hydraulic clutch. Going this route seems intriguing right now. I'm beginning to wonder though, what work would...

Thanks for the info! Is this the one you're thinking of: https://www.summitracing.com/parts/mcl-1434003 I'm hoping by using this kit from GM (part of the connect and cruise package) I can minimize compatibility problems: https://www.summitracing.com/parts/nal-19329900
