Careless Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 anyone know where to get the connectors, T lines, and wiring accessories that these guys use? http://www.motorsport-wiring.com/ Mil-spec CPC Connectors are to wires as AN fittings are to hoses. anyone have any links? distributors that sell to public? I want to panel mount my EFI Harness if at all possible. Un-hook one big block, and the entire engine comes out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimzdat Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 I found it hard to see that pic, but I assume the mil-spec CPC are like the old "cannon plugs" I'm used to seeing on aeroderivative gas turbines? I am pretty sure you can get those from Digi-Key--they sell to the public, and no minimum order http://www.digikey.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony D Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 Yeah, ITT-Canon Style Plugs... Of course that site is recomending Raychem wiring, though not specifying if it's Tefzel coated, or what... A/N is a standard, but there are other more secure tubing standards out there, depending on how severe the service. A/N is popular as they are light, easily available, and at one time were very cheap and available as surplus. That's how "Earls" got it's start!

Careless Posted December 27, 2007 Author Share Posted December 27, 2007 Thanks guys. I had found one site that had them available, I just didn't print the part numbers to PDF at the time, so I lost it for good (among a bunch of other useful wiring sites during that crash). I see that they're using those Raychem mil-spec wound wire bundles. But I wonder where they get those very snazzy "T" lines. the ones that join at a double-90'. Any idea what those are called? I was going to just use the CPC Flange mounted cannon plug, but then I decided I will find a flange mounted metal housing with a sealing-oring for a more worthwhile application. Might cost like 80 bucks for a friggen connector and two back halves to allow some flexing. (engine vibes) Thanks doods =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Careless Posted January 3, 2008 Author Share Posted January 3, 2008 Here ya go http://www.mouser.com/catalog/628/1040.pdf ... Thanks bjhines. Those are actually the exact ones i had asked my electrical supplier if he could get last year, and he never got back to me. Perhaps I should follow up. The reason I was second guessing though, is because in their gallery they have a picture of a ford cosworth engine with their "power-2-pass" technology (fancy word for scramble boost), and I saw it at the autoshow... the connectors looked like they were cast aluminum and painted black. UL94V-0 heat rating on these plastic ones.... is that engine bay safe? thanks! EDIT: GAHH! 1045 series is metal. and it's 10 times the price. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
