Hi just wondered if you could help me out with some info on my 53 superwasp.Does anyone do a underhood wiring harness for manual model and the other thing I wondered about is turn signals, mine has none, is this normal? Were turn signals and option in 53? Also the casting tube mounted on the outside of the twin H inlet manifold on mine has the threaded hole in the end plugged, does this usually take vacuum to the wipers? Mine are hooked to a fitting on the top of the fuel pump. I haven't tried them yet to see if they work as am currently changing propane back to twin H carbs.
Cheers Mike.

Ok look in our links section and do a search on wiring harness I have some good companies in there like Rhode Island and YNZ they will have all types of harnesses for your Wasp. They do make a underhood harness for a manual model.

Yes believe it or not turn signals were optional. I have seen factory kits for sale on ebay. I think Bill and Charles a supplier of Hudson parts may have a kit. I will pm you the email addy for them.

Yes standard was wiper coming off balancer tube but if you had the dual action fuel pump the wipers were fed off of it.

Thanks thats a big help, now I will have to see if or regs require turn signals to be fitted if they were not originally, we have to fit belts to cars 56 and newer.
