Wiring gives me migraines! Joe I’m happy that there are guys like you that enjoy digging into wiring! Look forward to learning about wiring unless my head blows up first ! 🤣😁
I've spoken with the guys at K&R. Their products seem to be of good quality and well thought out. I'm anxious to see how you like them. They also have what they call their Pro-Street kit now that has more switches and circuits including street car stuff like horn, turn signals and other auxiliary circuits.
That’s really cool. I’d like to check out their pro street kit. So far I’ve been impressed with this board that I am installing in the camaro. Instructions are good, wiring harness is nice and wires are labeled, etc.
Another informative video. Your attention to detail is ridiculous!!🔥🔥 I know you sit behind a computer to make a living, and your probably really good at that too, but we can all see what you're truly passionate about. I'll be the first to say it, I see a possible career change in your future? 👍😉 Looking forward to your future vids!
Hi, Joe! Thanks for this and four other videos. A question about your non-insulated terminals. What are the terminals you call "one to many" (at 8:09 in the video)? Where do you get them?
Nice video series idea Joe. If you'd like to one up yourself, put part #s to all of the tools & wiring products in the description, would be beneficial to viewers like myself that are getting ready to wire a car & looking for some of the supplies you're using. Keep up the good content! Oh one more thing, maybe a microphone in the future? 🤙🏼
About to get started on mine. Holley ecu came in today. But the only holley crimpers I see are like $350. Im only going to do like 3 or 4 on the ecu and a few on the pro dash and probably never need it again
@@StreetCarJoe I've got a little 98 S10 I'm gonna be introducing to my channel soon. Small tire street truck. I'm always looking for new tips on wiring (my greatest nightmare). This series will def help me out.
Very very good videos. I have watched all the wiring ones multiple times and ordered all the same components you use. Very helpful To me. I am about to take on my first attempt at wiring a complete car from scratch. What do you do when the Fueltech wire harness is not long enough to reach your battery and some of the other components in the rear of the car? It states in the manual that it must be connected to the battery with no seams? Does that mean I can use a butt connector to extend it, and I t just needs to be a sealed wire from end to end? Or does it mean that it needs to be one solid piece from end to end? Sorry if this seems like a simple question but I would rather ask a question and do it once and do it right. Thank you!
Thanks for this, very informative. I do wonder why you don't solder? I was under the impression that soldering was best for connectivity and to prevent them coming apart. No?
They say solder is actually weak to vibrations and tension stress and will cause it to crack. A proper crimp with heat shrink is more “reliable”. I’ll be honest, I’ve done both for years. GM actually used to train techs how to solder wiring harnesses. I still solder in some instances...
What’s the overall price of doing this? I just bought a tube chassis car that came with no wiring except for the lights. I’m going to be using the terminator x so I just need the chassis wiring
Do you use 2:1,3:1, heat shrink or just regular stuff? I think the 2-3 ones all have a Inder adhesive that will still all moisture from entering anyways
Joe, when building a complete new harness, are you just extending the constant 12v and 12sw from the standalone evu harness side out to your own source? So it'll have it coming off from the ecu? I'm trying to plann out mybsetupnfor a emu black /2jz
The no rely to a real question let’s me know this guy is just remaking a pointless video for the 1 billionth time who needs a video on how to plug and play out of the box harness… clueless nobody on TH-cam is actually “Wiring” a car especially the ECU guys
Fuel tech need to bring out a PDM. Using relays are a thing of the past. It adds so much unnecessary complexity to your wiring loom. Looks like a great build will be watching👍🏻
@@StreetCarJoe it can be done but you don’t see it much, here in Australia everyone is putting them in. Motec, haltech and microtech to name a few PDM’s. All the top cars are doing it, it’s a great way to future proof your race car. would be a shame to go to all that trouble wiring up relays and so forth, when you could simplify your wiring with a PDM. I know some people are on a budget😅😅 but it’s quite clear you have bought the whole fuel tech catalog.😃 Great build regardless.👍🏻
It can start as cheap as $2,000 or so and go all the way up to $6,000 or more in labor. Just depends on options, sensors, plug & play vs custom harness, firewall bulkheads, etc.
@@StreetCarJoe I'm getting my car rewired after a hack job was done and I'm paying $4500, sounds excessive, but the amount of time it takes makes sense...thanks for the content you're putting out, learning a lot
@@Yeah.Buddy. Thanks. Yeah $5000 is normally a pretty average number to wire a car. If you think about it that’s barely more than a week at a shop rate... adds up quick

I'm off work today and this is just what I needed. StreetCarJoe ftw!

Street car Joe killing it with the videos.💪💪💪💪
Just what I need, Race Car Wiring. Looking forward to this Joe.
Thanks 💪🏻

Very cool love love love it, I'm in the middle of building my own harness as well. So i love finding wiring videos.
Excellent choice of projects to make a series.
🙌
I hate working on anything to do with wiring 😂 but I enjoy watching your channel JOE. Keep them great videos coming
Thanks!
The most anticipated build series on my list. Thanks for making this about end to end.
Thanks!!! Videos will be coming regularly for this project. Stay tuned!
thanks for the insight Joe.
Just started watching this video but I’m just gonna go ahead and say I’m freaking excited about this 🤘🏼🤘🏼 this is the point I’m at on my car now
Great to hear! Hopefully these videos can help ya out through the process...
This is going to be a great series !
💪
In the middle of wiring my car up with a Leash Street Strip Board. This will help me a lot.
Fosho. I expect this relay board to be very similar as the leash street/strip.
Yes finally, at a meeting but definitely gonna watch just had to leave a 👍🏿 and comment
💪
Awesome video! Keep it coming
Thanks!!!
I love wiring. I'm excited to see how you do things and hopefully I'll learn something!
💪🏻
Can’t wait!
In starting to wire my project right now!
Nice job Joe
Thanks!
This is going to be perfect for me to do my 78 camaro drag car project on my channel

You’re a BAMF at just about everything you do, but I’m sure you knew that. Thanks for the content Joe 🤙🏼
Ha! Thanks 🙌🏻
I love the amazon hydraulic crimper for the 4awg welding wire
I’ve been meaning to try one of those. I see a lot of people use them as well
I began getting Forest Whitaker eye when I saw all that wire. Having some horrible flashbacks. I need whiskey now.

What gauge wire did you use for the alternator? Great job on the video
4ga
so is it a water to water interncooler or is literally the coolant for the engine the way you say it was for the engine not a turbo or something
What brand and where do I get those 1 to many non insulated connectors?

Hopefully I can wire my car up too.....I've only patched factory wiring....from 69-72 Novas. Got a 69 that needs all new wiring.

Where did you get multiwire crimps. Ive never seen them before. Would make life a lot easier. Thanks

The cloth like electrical wrap? Its Tesa Harness tape...

I was thinking of making grounds out of oxygen-free copper my second option would be welding wire.

No issues hot starts with the 4 gauge power system cables? What length of runs do you have on the build? Thanks sir!
Not as long as you’re using quality wire. My gauge goes from the trunk of the car up to the starter and alternator. 15ft runs or so...
@@StreetCarJoe appreciate you, sir. I picked up the EWCS as well since you had good luck with it.
Do you use 2:1,3:1, heat shrink or just regular stuff? I think the 2-3 ones all have a Inder adhesive that will still all moisture from entering anyways
I use a 3:1 ratio normally...
