Quick question. Did 82-92 Camaros come from factory with a wire loom wire harnes? I was just wondering because nearly all of my wire harness is done in electrical tape, with just some of the ends using wire loom. Old electrical tape is nasty when you need to take it off, just makes a huge sticky mess.

Re: Wiring

They would have the wires loosley taped (just enough tape to hold wires in a bundle)with loom around them.

Re: Wiring

Thanks! Alright thats what I was wondering. Theres almost no wire loom and most the harness is completely taped so its likely somebodys mess. It just seemed like alot of work for somebody to do. it was done to wiring through the dash, from the ECM into the enginge bay, and even under the carpeting.

Re: Wiring

It was loomed with tape at the ends of the plastic to keep them together and every intersection. Very few runs were wrapped continuously with tape

Your 90 should be nearly all plastic split loom
