      So the engine is now in its (hopefully) final place. Quite close all round to be honest so hopefully everything clears with any torque twist.

        Does anyone have any info on how to wire the transfer case? I think I've got all the engine and gearbox wiring figured out, but I think there's 5 plugs on the transfer case that somehow need to be connected to something. It's a shame a lot of Vince's posts have gone now, as I'm sure the answer would have been in there somewhere.

        Also, any recommendations on a flat pack stainless exhaust kit would be useful. I'll be buying a TIG to make it, just need a good source of the parts.

          Well it’s been a tough slog. Engine is in its final resting place, Walbro fuel pump is in the tank and refitted along with new fuel filter and AN-6 fittings. Oil relocation is fitted with new oil pressure and temp sensors. Loom is all fitted and shoved through the firewall. Gear linkage shortened and props refitted.

          Now we come to the wiring. I desperately need some advice from either Vince or someone who may be able to help actually wiring everything to the surf. I bought the diagrams etc from Kelvin at cartune.nz, but there’s a lot of stuff in there I don’t understand. Like the alternator wiring….which seemed to just plug in using the surf connections. And the ecu, which as I am lead to believe needs relays and fuses for the fuel pump, starter and efi circuits.

          help!

            - I'd recommend Chris at Phoenix Engine Management. He can make you a whole loom.

              Already spoke to Chris and he said he couldn’t do a loom that would plug and play. I also saw his prices!

              and why do all my posts need approved now?

                Sorry about your posts needing approval. It's the software that runs this forum (and countless others). It's an utter pile of **** and I spend countless hours battling with it. I'll see if I can get you permanently whitelisted.
                Thanks

                  Update - I've made you, budweiser and NiftyNev super moderators so if your posts get flagged again you can approve them yourself. Sorry I know it's a pain but I'm working out why the anti-spam system is being so buggy.
                  Thanks

                                So I’m hopefully coming to the end of the wiring. Just have a few bits left to figure out, so if anyone can help with the following, that would be appreciated;

                                I have the starter relay in place and working, however it starts in any gear., so I’ve obviously picked up the wrong signal wire under the dash. Any idea which wire in which plug should be used?

                                the last few wires to connect will be tacho, oil pressure gauge, reverse lights, engine management light, and atf temp light. Are there any I’ve missed, and which plugs would those signals come from?

                                lastly, Kelvin @ cartune advised I need to power the trans. As I used the full loom from the Lexus, and the transfer box wiring just plugs in its original position under the dash, is there another feed I’m missing?
