    Thanks!…..my model year is ‘57 but the cable they show is only 3 wire, my plug has 5 conductors….must be cable they show a# fi4 ‘58 on up?…..oh, ouch $275 for the cable!…..any more affordable options?

    The 57 model harness is only a 3-wire harness because there was no kill circuit. the 58-up harness has 5 wires (2 more for kill circuit). If your motor has the 5-wire harness the harness at least is from a 58-up motor.

    Either way those harnesses are quite expensive as you have found out. I would be inclined to build my own also if I didn’t own one. I have one harness and two motors to use it with.
