House's ITB XE build and re-build

[House]

Bit more today

[novarally]

Colin, they're something else!! James was reluctant to suggest them because of the cost but they're proper bits of kit, worth every penny!!

They are, I?ve had them on several cars previously, and the Nova will have a good few in the latest incarnation.

What?s the idea/reason for the loops before the pin?

It's incase you have a pin problem, bent or damaged that needs replacing or you need to move a pin for any reason, there's no hope of pulling any slack out of the loom so it goes there in the connector boot

Edit to add "stress relief" too as pointed out by Mr GSI!!

Look like pig tails to me.
I would suspect this will be for stress relief in the cables, giving it an extra half an inch maybe should they be pulled tight.

When I 1st looked, thought they were common links but had to zoom in after you mentioned it.

Smart. Like that.

I should add, I'm not doing any of this wiring, it's all being done by James @ Relentless Performance.

His knowledge of wiring and cable is frankly scary and a little bit worrying.

Although I am looking forward to him working out how to program this dash!! Hahaha

Appreciate that bud.

1st time I've seen someone do this with a car as well.
Is he doing both ends like it?
I tend to add about 6 inches at the end that is to be ran and connected, cutting it back once in place.

So he only loops the bulkhead ends but just said you should do both ends really but not many do that.
