The 2nd step of the HPA 10 step motorsport harness construction process is determining how the harness will physically route through the vehicle and the engine bay.

With the first step of the process completed, we have a design for how all of the components will be electrically connected but we need to determine how the harness will physically connect to the parts of the EFI system.

Before we can finalise this, it's ideal if all of our components are physically mounted so that their location is finalised and we can then decide on the best harness routing. Special considerations include some flex in the harness to account for engine movement, logical ECU placement in relation to our bulkhead connector/s and the use of nylon rope for a 'mock harness' to ensure that our visualisations match the physical realities and bend radii.

We're using a V8 engine swap project for this example, running a MoTeC M170 ECU, which is just 1 of over 40 modules in the Professional Practical Harness Construction Course offered by the High Performance Academy.
