Gutting all underhood wires?? Just got back from the track and there was an SS there that the wires were totally gutted. Both underhood fuse boxes were gone along with all the wires down the passenger side. Has anyone done this? They weren't relocated...they were gone. The guy said he got some kind of race harness from GM and hardwired the motor?? He still had the PCM and all the MAF and TB wires that I could see. Said he dropped 150lbs getting rid of everything.

Re: Gutting all underhood wires?? it just runs ur lights pw,pl wipers etc.
u make ur engine harness stand alone.
just like putting a engine drop out in a street rod or a older car.

Re: Gutting all underhood wires?? I am confused 
Do you mean that it doesn't have any wiring for the tranny at all. Just the engine?
What about dash lights, speedo etc?
thanks for any clarification
