Default CAS Male Connector to not cut harness

I have searched and searched but I think my key words are off. I have a 94 NA I am swapping a MSM engine into. Currently rewiring the CAS wires to handle a cam and crank sensors. I am trying to avoid cutting the harness. What I am looking for is a male connector I can plug into the stock CAS 4 prong harness and wire into the sensors. Does it exist?

I do not believe the connector you want exists. I have cut them out of old coil packs before.

If the male connector is not available you can depin the female and use a 4 way that uses the same terminals and male/female are both available , like below. I believe the bottom 4 connector is the one you currently have?

Yes the harness you want does exist. I bought one from ballenger and posted about it in my build thread and in the na to vvt swap thread.

Ah shitballs

that one does exist at ballenger too. Which andy found. I'll see myself out.

I used one of those sold as a 12" extension, to troubleshoot that my wiring harness was bad, https://www.bmotorsports.com/shop/pr...oducts_id/4162

I was planning to do the same as OP, but since I had broken wires in my harness, I cut the harness and used deutsch connectors to make a harness to the CAS, and am about to make one to to go from DT4 connector to crank and cam sensors.

Looking at this example I assuming it is from the CAS point of view and not the plug? I mention not because unfortunately the generic plugs I bought are not color coded or marked. Anyone know a way to tell which wire is which on these plugs?

Yes, it exists: https://www.bmotorsports.com/shop/pr...oducts_id/4159

I highly recommend new female plugs with this connector. Currently using this to connect LS coils on my 94.
