I am finally done painting the thing, so I can move to new challenges.
 
I am working on the firewall now and would like to get all holes just about right the first time.
I am installing a JPI EDM930 engine monitor (very similar to VM1000C), and need to route fifty-some tiny wires through the firewall. I bought a couple of 16 pin Amphenol connectors a an early stage, but this is clearly not enough. I also have some concerns about cutting and soldering all those wires, as this surely introduces yet fifty-some new possible sources of failure. Most of the wires are also shielded and what have we all.......
 
I lean towards making one large harness that simply runs thrugh the firewall in one or two bundles and just live with the trouble if I ever need to take of the engine.
 
What did you guys do and how did you make it look awardwinning nice and yet fireproof???
 
Photos GREATLY appreciated!
