: Where to buy Bulkhead Connector?

I am converting my 68 SS396 to a late model FI engine with it's own wiring harness. I won't need much of my original harness moving forward. I could remove the wires I do not need, but at this time would rather not damage the original harness (in case I want to go back to stock someday).

I was thinking about purchasing the bulkhead connector and then just adding the wires I need leaving my original alone. I've searched all over, but do not see where I can purchase just the bulkhead connector.

Any ideas? Thanks

Look at Waytek, they sell the Littlefuse stuff for panels:

The old mil style ones are still the best..

You might ask M&H if they would sell just the connector.

Now y'er talking Ron. :thumbsup:
I've used those a few times on custom wiring some time ago, Pre-Internet. I would scavenge them from old (WW-II/Korea?) military radio gear. The terminals were available military surplus.
I haven't thought about them in a long time, but Alvatek is now in my Bookmarks. Thanks.

Thanks for the responses. I should have been more clear - my goal was to find the factory connector for the engine side of the firewall.

On second thought, it might just be easier for me to modify what I have and then buy a reproduction engine harness in the future should I decide to go back to stock.
