I usually just make a harnass. Get some different color wire at the truck supply, and a good terminal set, and some electrical tape, and go to it. Trying to think about it, but it's not really a whole lot of wiring... oil pressure sender, coolant temp. sender, four wires to the alt, thermostart, 2 for the air restriction indicator...well ok, it's a few. 16 ga is probably ok for most, except 12 or 14 for the thermostart and 10 or 12 ga for the main from the alt. Plus, it's fun figureing out that kind of mess. Trailer cable is another option, but it is heavily guarded. Easier to just bundle and tape up the different wires. It will look just as good as new, color coded and all. You just won't have the multi-connectors. So it cost some time and some wire (100 bucks and you have lots of left overs). Good luck.
