69 Wiring
I have an early 69 corvette 4 speed that i am currently restoring and recently bought a box of misc 68-82 corvette parts that included a 1968 corvette engine wiring harness. Can i use this in my 69,the fuse panel attachment seems the same but my old harness is so bad there is no way to compare.Were there any engine wiring differences between 68 & 69?

A 68 should have a different ignition switch connector because the switch was on the dash not the column. I think a 69 will have a different connector to the rear tail light harness (different rear light setup on a 68). Brake light switch is different. No clutch pedal switch on a 68 (could be 69 also). I'm sure there are more.
There are some pretty nice color wiring diagrams for both 68-9.
