With new moisture resistance connectors installed, I turned my attention to the main power supply and ground wires for the EFI; as well as, the high current power and ground wires for the MSD CDI box.
When I originally installed the ITB EFI system I used 10 awg solar system wire that I had left over from the solar power installation at my house. The solar wire has high heat and UV tolerance and plenty of dielectric stand off strength, but the insulation is thick and pretty stiff so it was hard to work with. In its place I used 12 awg automotive grade copper wire.
Unfortunately, the main wires were buried beneath the rest of the EFI wiring so replacing them meant unwrapping and taking apart the EFI wiring. The upside is I get to improve the wiring layout and should end up with a more tidy installation.
Following are photos of the tear down and re-assembly:
