Default Want to do a New Engine Harness

I've had off and on, nagging electrical gremlins for the better part of 2 years now. And it's aggravating.

My harness is not in great shape so I'm thinking of doing an aftermarket replacement. Speartech, Painless, BP, and PSI all offer harnesses. All pretty similar in price.

Anybody have experience with them?

I have quite a few customers that do conversions. These are usually in older vehicles. All but one use PSI. The one that doesn't uses Speartech. They all seem to have an occasional glitch, usually like a wire in a wrong location in a connector.

Great.

Speartech is the most expensive. But they could do a re-do of my existing harness for less money. That might be the way to go. They also use what looks like a better loom cover.

But the PSI is only a little bit more than the reworked Speartech. And if there is a glitch or some other problem, I'd still have my harness to fall back on. Hmm.

I highly recommend Speartech, I cant even count how many customers I have sent to them who had harness issues (from other companies) and now they buy everything from Speartech. I have been using them since 2007/08 and never had a single issue.
