1973 Duster wiring harness compatibility question

The appeal of original wiring is that it would look the same and have all the connectors in place - it is also pretty inexpensive. If in okay shape, I feel like it would be a good cheap upgrade.

The 73 up engine harness is two piece. The part that plugs into the firewall is universal, the second half is engine specific.
The only difference in your case is that the coil wires and oil sending switch wires are going to be different lengths.
Unwrap that part of the harness and put the wires where you need them, then rewrap.
As for aftermarket wiring, you are miles ahead using even decent original stuff than rolling the dice on Chinawire


Thanks, Tony. I guess the coil and oil pressure sender would just be a little longer on a slant six - better longer than shorter, no?
