I am finally just about done with the electrical. There were some wires that needed to be moved to adapt the 1HZ to the FJ60 harness, and a list additions that need to be installed. Instead of extending wires to move them from one side of the engine bay to another, I ended up actually pulling the harness apart and feeding the wires back through to keep the engine bay and under-dash as clean a possible. I also fed the wires for the new circuits in as well. It was a mess for a while, but now that it's all back together I am glad I did it. Here's a break down of what was done.
Oil pressure sender - moved the wire from the right to left
Starter wire - moved the wire from the right to left
Fuel cut-off solenoid - I used the wire to the FJ carb solenoid for the 1HZ fuel cut off. It seamed appropriate and was already on the correct side of the engine bay and gets power from the ignition switch.
A/C Comp - The FJ wire was already on the correct side.
Alternator - The FJ wire was already on the correct side.
Water temp - The FJ wire was already on the correct side.
I also added several new circuits to the harness including some things I will not install yet, but wanted to pre-wire for when I do. Relays were used in many of these circuits so I installed two new fuse blocks (6 gang each), one under the dash on the passenger side, and one on the driver side. The driver side fuse panel gets power on ignition from the old FJ ignition coil wire, and provides power to the low-draw devises such as warning lights and the relay switch coils. The passenger side fuse panel gets power directly from the battery, and provides power for the higher-draw accessory relays. I'll write more about these later. Here are some pics of the process. The wires I added are tagged with green tape...
