[Healeys] wire harness

[josef-eckert at t-online.de]

Black plastic wrapping isn´t original. It should be a cotton braided loom.

The car is a BN6 No. 2344.  Moss list a change to the Wire harness 
somewhere around 3459. Cannot find an explanation of why the change.  The 
harness that came of was PVC with black plastic wrapping which I thought 
was original.  would like to be as close as possible to original.
Thanks
Gerry

Depends upon what you are trying to achieve.
If you want to end up with a driver (20 foot) car that Aunt Mary describes 
as "cute" then whatever works will be just fine.
If you are looking to end up with something that someone with some 
knowledge of classic car restoration will appreciate then replace the 
harness with one that closely replicates the original.
You don't mention what model of Healey you are working on but originally it 
would have had cloth covered wire with a cloth covering on the harness (Pre 
Oct 58) or PVC insulated wires with a cloth harness outer cover after tht 
date.

  Looking for an point of view.  should one replace the wire harness that
  is braided or try to follow the original that appears to be PVC and
  banded together with black rap. The original is not that bad but again
  not that good.
  thanks
  can some who is on the MGT list know how to get on it?
