If you need more than 12 you can divide into two connectors. For example a 6 and 8 give you 14 pins. Just make sure that you alternate gender so that the plugs can not be cross mounted if they have the same pin count.

BTW The 4 wire IAC does not have to mount on the engine. You will need to run individual hoses from ITBs to the IAC through a manifold. Connect the IAC at the manifold off the engine. This allows for a smaller connector.
Hi Jamie,

My thought with mounting the IAC on the engine was that during engine removal, I wouldn’t need to remove the hoses if it was mounted on the engine, just pulling the plug would do the trick.

Not that I plan on taking the engine out that often, maybe not ever if I get lucky!

Thanks,
Rutager
