Lexiion is coming over tonight for another wiring session. I'm going to do everything I can to drive the car this weekend even if the wiring isn't finished. I've got an itch that only an ecoboost mustang can scratch The weather is perfect right now and I have no plans for the weekend but to wash my cars and to drive this mustang!

So we worked for 3 hours on the wiring and accomplished some goals. I now have brake lights, turn signals, reverse lights, park lights, low and high beam headlights and fog lights. The kill switch is wired completely including the extra relay that bleeds off power from capacitors in the electrical system through a resistor when the kill switch is tuned off. The dash is back in for now too.
I've got a list of items to get ready tomorrow and then we should be good for a Sunday test drive and data log session!

Tomorrow I am getting a 2014 F150 Ecoboost engine and 6R80 trans with all 5 wiring harnesses and the PCM, plus a lot of related parts. I should have everything needed for a 3.5L EB/6R80 install, but I have not yet decided what vehicle I should select for an install.

How about an older body style 4x4 bronco? Or maybe a late 60s mustang?
