If you had your choice, Which harness would you buy, the one from Chevy Duty for around 100.00 , or the one from Jim Carter for about $140.00. All I want to do is make a good driver out of the '51 ,3100 I bought in Oklahoma last year. I am going to add signal lights and go to an Alterntor. Which is the best signal light switch? Thanks

I wanted to have extra circuits for AC, power seats and anything else that may come up in the future, so I went with an EZ-Wire kit for $160 -- and glad I did.

See my install and Notes Here[/b]

Later, I added some very cool improvements to my entire wiring set up:

I would go with the Chevy Duty. There basic kit will do the job that you want done. It has instructions and is color coded. Very straight forward. Cecil.......

Would you consider doing it yourself? It is quite simple. I did mine using the schematic and doing one wire at a time. Get good wire and most importantly good crimpers. If you go to 12 volts you can use the wire gauge specified in the schematic.

I bought the Chevy Duty set. I haven't finished installing it completely yet, too many other things going on. But I am very please with it.

I went the route of EZ-Wire and am very happy I did. I also have a daily driver, well when I am not working on it and keeping it off the road, and am very please with the results from EZ-Wire.

I am now leaning toward the Chevy Duty one. I will try and do it myself , so it will take some time. Does the EZ have a web site? Thanks
