The BAD AST Project - Faze II

[LSfan70s]

I have done a lot of wiring before so I am very comfortable doing it. I know a lot of people are intimidated by the "spaghetti"... If you want to learn more I would suggest picking up two books. Both of them are by Tony Candela and are very well written.
He touches base on all of the basics in his first book

and covers some fairly in-depth projects in his second.

I have read through both of them a few times and everything I am doing here on the van I have either picked up through Tony's books or had my knowledge reinforced or changed for the better by him. The other thing I can tell you is, if you want to learn to do your own wiring, get out and do it. It's not that difficult and, with these books as reference, I think anybody could re-wire a car with little difficulty. Or just start small by tiding up all of those loose wires!
Thanks for looking

That's the inspiration I was needing. I purchased a couple of mil-spec connectors and have a harness all around my garage, but was a little afraid of braking something. I know it's not that difficult, but sometimes too much thinking makes you afraid.



Your project is awesome, I've been following since the beginning and checking all the updates I get daily by email. It will be awesome once completed with all those great mods.

Thanks for the inspiration

No problem Bud, glad to be an inspiration to someone. I do a lot of that "too much thinking" thing. I have been doing that with this wiring job but, like is stated in Tony's book, "break the job down into the individual circuits and it will go easier" He is right. Taking the work one step at a time will get you a little closer everyday.
