Everything looks right except *possibly* the flipping of the power cables. Those should be fine already, since the harness is wired for a 63x-style board in the first place. As long as you keep the same wiring arrangement, you might decide moving them to the top or bottom of the harness works better. If you plan on adding the 3.3V regulator later, you're probably better off to let the main power wires come out the top of the harness and hang about an extra 4" off the bottom to place the 3.3V reg up front in the chassis.

Note that once you do the surgery, CC-style boards will no longer fit or work and you will be *required* to use a Takky board.

Also, the numbering on Takky's wiring diagram is *wrong* for the IDE cables, but since you may not need to replace yours, you probably won't have to worry about it. The CC FAQ explains this in more detail if you're worried or decide you need a longer HD cable.
