Got a car on trade that i thought was cool, not running of course. I have a pretty good knowledge of electrical repairs but i want to make sure what i have in plan is sufficient

Car has multiple splices, spots where wire used to be tied in and the insulation is stripped, additional mods wired in. Just overall not healthy ans i knew the more i dug the worse itd get so i wanted to get it out of the way

I stripped the sheating EVERYWHERE got it down to bare insulated wire.and located a master terminal/pin/plug kit for this particular engine. The wire in place is all mostly oem woth the exception of one strand which ill figure out what exactly is shortly

Found alot more than i anticipated so i ordered

Heatshrink label maker

Terminal and plug kit

10 rolls of 50' of tefzel wire in different colors

Tesa Cloth tape

Saftey wire

Tesa fleece tape

Expandable wire sheating 1/4 1/2 3/4 and 1"

My questions are where wires tie together for grounds or powers or for whatever reason. Can i move them within reason, lengthen/shorten wires where i need to make a neater harness

My goal is to get the harness build with a quick release at the fire wall so i dont have to pull the interior side when i want to pull the motor, this is a later project though

I would like to replace all worn out connectors and broken wires with new counterparts. Then after that task is completed ill do one wrap of tesa tape(cloth) around the harness and wrap it with saftey wire so that i can shape the harness when i install to tuck it better and use clamps and such to make it clean. After the aafter wire itll get another layer of tesa tape(fleece) then have the sleeve installed with heat shrink to hold it in place.

All said and done its a simple project as im not overly modifying it id just like to make sure i can do what i need to neaten it because the factory runs them long wraps them up puts the connectors in strange spots.

Car is a 1995 eagle talon for reference not crazy old but nothing super new

Recently aquired a Talon on trade, posted it for trades,offers because i have no idea what its worth as a car in general but started to fall for it.

Got the car not running with most if not all the parts to get it to be a running car again inside of it

Owner said the motor was rebuilt and built for nitrous, appears to have defiently been rebuilt from the outside or atleast torn down as every gasket and plug i can see appears to be brand new, the manifold was changed to one with a waste gate, ebay turbo, aftermarket intercooler, has a nitrous bottle and all the hookups for it(cant seem to find the particular kit for this car unless thats a stock intake with a sticker or something). Said theres a new clutch in the transmission. Head has been replaced with a 97 head

Driveline is off and in car

Cv shaft under passanger side was broke

Multiple sensors/starter wasnt plugged in

Exhaust is unhooked

Strut tower needs repair and so does trunk floor

Camshaft sensor wires were cut and spliced into a sensor that goes to the boost lines, see inbetween the valve cover and the billet fuel rail.

Ive checked the timing marks since the cover was off anyway, belts on and its all lined up, turned car over by hand feel the compression stroke, no binding or hard spots

My question is where would you all of the DSM community start, what to check and double check before trying to crank or do anything too crazy

Just and edit, the starter relay is trash on this car(apperently a pretty common problem from what ive seen) so thats bypassed, so dont need the clutch to start the car anymore either and the key works for that, however the starter was no good so i got a salvage yard starter and that also was no good so im ordering a brand new one,

I also have already removed the 97 camshaft postion sensor/cam angle sensor and built a plate to bolt over it, aince the car doesnt need it

Got this 95 Talon on trade, defiently a project but has alot of nice parts

79000 miles

Rebuilt motor to handle nitrous with a 97 head on it

New clutch in the transmission

Ebay special turbo and cast manifold with wastegate

SFI

Auto timer

Hypertech tuner

AEM computer

Nitrous kit

Sure im missing more
