Engine gauge feed harness

[1968f250429]

Hello all, was wondering what all vehicles I can use the ignition/ gauge feed harness from? Wasn't sure what all was interchangeable with our trucks.

Have a 429 engine in my 68 and wasn't sure if the early dent sides still had the flat 3 wire plug. Any help from the gurus would be appreciated for part number that would work. Thanks everyone.

The dent era changed quite a bit, here's just a few differences to start.

1) Ignition swith bump in the dash versus dent era in the steering column.
2) Gauge(s) and illumination went to the printed circuit board after 1972 (uses a wide flat connector to plug into the instrument panel.
3) pretty sure you'd have to "graft" any part of the dent harness into the bump harness regardless as memory recalls that part of the bump harness being the main wiring harness under the dash that feeds right from the fuse panel?

Is your harness that butchered up that it needs that much maybe think about, (can't believe I'm actually writing this) a Painfull/I mean Painless wiring harness to replace your with. Sure hope a few more guys jump in here as this is a critical thing on our bumps and surely someone other than painful makes a better option, (believe me the headaches I've seen guy have installing those are by the dozens here!!!
