In theory this harness would be just what we all need when converting an 
FC to an alternator. The trouble is, the company that makes these 
harnesses has promised this harness for 4 or 5 years and has yet to 
deliver. It's in our catalog too - but a lot of good that does when the 
manufacturer won't produce it. Keep in mind also that the wiring for the 
rear license plate lite is different as well (for 61-63) but that's a 
minor point. I suppose we could get the 61-63 harnesses take them apart 
and modify them but  then they would cost more and no one has so far 
been interested in this option. Lon

Every wire I see has broken insulation and the ones I can't see are definately grounding out.  I was interested in members experiences with:  Clarks, Underground, and generic kits from Painless Wiring or other vendors).  Clarks lists a 65 van wiring harness, is this set up for an Alternator or a generator?  Other than that are there any differences in van harnesses 61-65?
