1967 Mustang. Under hood wiring harness. Is there something better to wrap a harness with other than electrical tape? Electrical tape does get messy after time. If electrical tape, which is best?

I used an oem wiring harness tape which is not electrical tape. It looks like black electrical tape but is not sticky but sticks to itself. I then used a small amount of electrical tape to keep the ends of the wraps in place. But I'll be darned if I can remember where I got it. Sorry. Might have been Summit

Or you can use split loom. comes in all sizes.

Go to RJM Injection Tech and buy a roll of his harness wrap. It's what giz is talking about above. Others have it but RJM has the best price. If you can, you can pre position 1" sections of adhesieve lined heat shrink tubing (
Good luck,

Go to Terminal Suppy Co and buy a supply of self-wrapping, woven poly loom. You can secure the ends with electrical tape if you can't pre position heat shrink. You'll love that stuff.

BB is so very right about that woven poly loom stuff. Most of the newer PC's are using it, a much cleaner look than than the split tubing. Too bad thesplit tubing is bout the only cover you can retro fit to an existing harness.

Not true Oh great Corkster....
The stuff I get from Terminal Supply is split, sort of. I'll try to 'splain. Form a "tube" with your hand and then close it into a fist. That's how this stuff works. I can be somewhat of a fight at times to get it over the harness but once it's there it closes right around the bundle and stays in place. I like to heat the raw end to keep it from fraying, then hold it down with a wrap of tape or, better still, a 1" section of heat shrink tube.

That's the stuff, James.

I like the wire wrap, like the stuff RJM sells w/shrink tube, as the least bulky, neatest looking finished product solution. Just gotta make sure everything is okey-doke and done before wrappin' & shrinkin'.
