ok i am doing a 1978/1985 blazer build. i have a 85 body on a 78 chassis and i want to purchase all the wiring harness new plug-n-play type. the steering column i am using is a 89 .. the blazer has pw,auto,ps,pb, rear power window, air cond . quad 85 lights .. i want to eliminate the computer but stay with HEI distributor. the dash gauges are 85.
so the big question is..[U]what year dash harness?[/U] in sure the 85 light harness is what i need. but can i use a 85 dash harness and unplug the computer? or ecm? another thing to add is i have installed a low horse 350 crate engine and 700r4 trans, running a quadrajet carb no smog..
Help Please.
thx Dave

I should think life may be a lot easier if you went with the wiring harness for that (very good looking) body-tub. You will have a very small amount of work-around to match up column wiring to dash and some minor issues under the hood. Do they smog in Arid-Zona? Here in Soviet California, you would have to meet stock smog requirements for the Body's year. No excuses.

Looks really nice so far. So does that pretty blue front clip behind it.

So far they are the leaders in my book with how older vehicles work electrically and are the supplier for Brothers, and many other vendors on this site.
