need advice on harness kit

I have a 59 f100 and all the wire is junk. Is there a kit to use that will allow modern engine from a mustang and work with the rest of the truck?

wiring harness advice

I bought a wiring kit from Ron Francis and it was very nice. Granted, this was for a GM application. It had plenty of circuits for fuel injection and the works. Kinda pricey...I gave around $600 for it, but they were nice folks to deal with. Hope this helps.

I believe they had Ford and Chrysler stuff too.

They give you a fuse box and marked wires with a diagram. They do not offer something that will be plug and play from the newer engine to the original older truck. So you do get something to work with, but you will have to do some head scratching to get it all together.
