Hey fellas, I've been shopping for a wiring harness for my 54 Pathfinder. There are a lot of options out there. I'm going to change it to 12v and it is running a SBC with HEI ignition. Has anyone used one they liked? I've looked at Vintage Auto Garage, Haywire, AutoWire, and Painless. Plus there is always Amazon. Anyone ever heard of WMPHE?? They have one on Amazon that looks good, but I havent pulled the trigger yet. Its half price of everybody else which makes me nervous, is that a good thing or is it that cheap???? ya know what I mean!!
I have used painless for other projects and not had an issue
One thing to look into is to make sure wire insulation isnt soy based. Poses a big problem for vehicles that sit a lot. Rodents like the taste of the soy based wire harness and will make a nasty mess in the most indiscriminate spots.

Thanks, thats a good tip. I never would have thought of that. I live in the country and although the shop is pretty tight, I always seem to get one or two every year.

I bought this one on eBay. It looks good but I havent installed it yet. I dont know if the insulation is soy based.
