Jim, It would appear from your photo that the harness is missing one of it's feeds and the connector.

Look at this link:

There is no scotch loks used on the engine feed. They are used for the inboard/outboard lamp extensions and under the dash to feel the oil/amp cluster. The original 1967 Shelby oil pressure sending unit wire was cut and folded over on itself with a piece of tape as well.

Jim is this for a 1968 application?

This harness is also usedd for the 1968 Shelbys and does use a scotch lok

+1. I think the package was mis marked as 67 or maybe  Scotch Loc was included so as to fit both 67 and 68.

Alloy marks all these harnesses the same, with the 1967 identification. Not mismarked, just used for multiple applications.

I suppose that if not mis marked and used for both applications like I eluded to in my post that the addition of the wording like but not limited to "68 with scotch loc" would eliminate some confusion like it has in this instance . ;)
