I also want to take those 6 engine ground wires & combine them inside the split tube & have just one heavy guage wire make a single ground spot on the engine encased in the conduit I am semi experiened with wring but i want to make it looks like real pro job so what type of connector would you use to combine all the 6 engine ground wires from the harness in side the conduit to 1 heaver guage wire that you tie to the engine block
TC, I have gotten some thermal split loom from NAPA made by GROTE but seems it is not available in all sizes. I would try getting in touch with GROTE directly. Or going to _McMaster-Carr_ (http://www.mcmaster.com/) and ordering it from them, they should have it. As for the electrical joint you want to make, I would solder that kind of connection and use heat shrink to cover it then burry it in the split loom. BTW, I think what your trying to do here is to be commended. Keep us all posted to your progress with this project.
