Square body Vic with a fuel injected engine.
Where to even begin with the wiring on this beast?

First what are you looking to do with the wiring and second bypass the fuel shutoff. It's located on the drivers side in te trunk under the speaker deck.

Do you want to run a carb? Or keep fuel injection? What year is the car?

Sorry for the lack info my bad. I'm not near the car to get exact year but it's a 90-91 square style.
Leaving it fuel injected. Have to because it's for a stock show.
Never worked on one of these before. Looking like a wiring nightmare lol

Just tidy everything up and tie it out of the way. If it looks like it may be a issue with getting hit, wrap an old rad hose around it and tape it up.

If your goin to run the stock alt. do t take out the gauge cluster. Easy way to tell if it's a 90 is it won't have gussets for the crush ones. The 91 has te gussets in the frame.

Make sure you move the solinoid off the fender.

Why would throwing a carbed intake off a 80s Ford not still be considered stock. Who can tell one box ford from another in inspection? Box vicks came with carbed 302s.

yeah what he said, it might seem like more work, but an intake carb and distributor is pretty simple is infinitely more reliable if you arent familiar with fuel injection. and much easier to diagnosis a problem if one arises. just tell them its a 80 instead of a 90 if its a big deal...

They accually check vins at this show. Which have to be mounted like factory. They are checking for things like that. Carb swaps.

Bypass inertia switch.. Move ignition coil.. Move wires, relays, and solonoid from fenders and core support..

Think I would find a different (carbed) car, or a different derby.
