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?

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.
