Since 1991 Painless Performance has been building engine wiring harnesses to allow hot rodders to swamp modern mills into their older rides. While things on this front were slow in 1991, Painless Performance was looking into the future and foresaw today’s era in hot rodding where modern engines into retro-rides are all the rage. From guys slamming GM LS-family engines into any and every possible chassis and body style to Ford fanatics plunking fuel injected small blocks into their early hot rods, Painless has your needs covered. Not only are the harnesses well designed they are true to the company’s name. We caught up with Dennis Overholser of Painless Performance and talked to him about the harnesses that the company has available for anyone performing a modern engine swap into an older car.
There are several benefits to going with one of these pre-made harnesses. The first is that they’re basically guaranteed to fit. The company has spent umpteen hours getting them right so that when an end-user gets them into their hands the installation is, well, Painless. All of the wires are marked every few inches so that if identification is needed there is no guess work. The fact is that we know of guys that have been able to get their engine in the car, plumbed and then install the Painless kit in about an hour. Additionally, Painless will provide a free computer reflash with your harness. They stock refurbished computers but you can also send yours to them to have flashed to your specific gear ratio, tire size, etc.
Simply put, Painless Performance makes swap harnesses that are the right length, have the right connectors, and won’t have you pulling your hair our when trying to install them. What’s better than that?
