I am in the process of restoring a 65 small block, that at one point was modified to be more like a 67 clone, back to original condition. I just changed out the wiring harness and the car no longer starts. Can anyone recommend a source for a step by step debug of harness problems?

Tim,
Get under the car with a test light, have someone turn the ignition key to the crank position and see if there is power on the S terminal at the starter solenoid. Make sure the car is in neutral with emergency brake on and wheels chocked. If you have power at this terminal there is a problem at the solenoid, if no power then it's from the wire back to the ignition switch and you will have to start process of elimination.- Top

I too had a problem w/my 65 harness that I purchased new from LL. The pins were screwed up when I got it & didn't realize this. I further destroyed them by forcing onto the fuse block. Ended up costing me 104.00 to buy a kit from LL w/all new pins & block. Make sure all the pins on the firewall mate up correctly and don't force it unless you want to screw around & pay also!- Top
