Having a good resource for your wiring schematics makes a lot of things easier. Whenever LS1 swap comes up, the wiring thread is "the" source that everyone points out. So, I went on and hacked off the un-needed wires. BUT, what they don't tell you, is that some of the wires listed, are actually needed. Like to make the reverse lights work. And the such. So playing with plugs 220 and 230 was the most PITA to find out what they actually go to. They're not needed to make the engine run, but for lights on the cluster, etc.
In the end, I needed to fix one wire, but the wiring harness is looking awesome. Vin went and resleeved the parts of harness that he could depin the plugs on, and left split loom on the rest. Overall, it looks good. The one thing that needs to be fixed still is the starter sub-harness, as in needs to come out in a different spot from the main trunk to make it look cleaner.
We pulled the motor - AGAIN, and layed out the harness out. Made things easier to work on and check the routing. Got to do the same when we're messing with the SR.
As for homework, I took the thermostat housing and I'm making a clocking spacer for it, so the hose points toward the radiator outlet. This will make hose routing shorter and cleaner. The picture above shows how the 45* spacer will point the waterneck down.
