There is no "engine" only harness. The interior (dash) and engine are all o=
ne. The only separate harnesses are the headlights and overdrive (if fitted=
 with one). It's your call, but on a car that old and especially one with a=
n engine fire, I'd just replace the entire harness. I think it would be eas=
ier and in the long run, more reliable. My 2 cents...

Just picked up a car and the engine wiring is a mess due to an engine compa=
rtment fire some years ago.

Is there just an engine harness available?  I see moss has "full set" and "=
auxiliary" which appears to have the lights etc.  I'm not sure what all tha=
t means.  Does anyone know or do I need to call Moss?

Or should I just build my own and link it to the existing wires?  That's no=
 big deal; I have built wiring harnesses for other cars and british wiring =
can supply me with the correct wires.
