Not hard if you think it through
Paul,
making your own loom is really not that bad, just time consuming. A friend and I rewired his car after a ground up restoration. Granted this was a low tech car with no EFI or any other electric engine controls (we did install an MSD) but it was not hard. We took a big piece of paper (poster size) and in one corner listed all the electric components in the car then started drawing out a diagram and checking off components as we went. When we were satisfied it was right we set up a 4'x8' sheet of styrafoam (spelling?) and began laying out wire. We crimped, soldered and put heat shrink tubing on all ends. We used a light blue color of heat shrink and wrote in black marker what the circuit was as it entered the terminal/fuse block. When it was done we removed all fuses from the block, hooked up the battery and waited a few minutes looking for smoke, then we would put one fuse in at a time and try that system. It worked perfectly and has been no trouble since. As I said, not hard or technically difficult, just time consuming.
