Picked up a 1990 240sx s13 off of a kid who gave up during an engine swap…old single cam to a newer ka24de twincam…im going to be rebuilding the engine just on the basis they did a crappy job with everything else and i dont trust there haphazard work…the big nightmare im having is the wiringharness…i have the original uncut and the one for the ka24de…i cannot however find a diagram for the many extra plugs i have…kinda has me worried…id like to solve the issue before the engine is compleated…any idea’s as to a link where to find a premade swap harness or a pic or 2 with an article about the swap…this would be most helpfull…thanks ``` Liquid_cool. ``` ---
