FC Fuseable Linkz Upgrade.

I have done a FC fuse box swap and plan to do a simple write-up after I get this one part figured out. The main problem I have rain into is what size fuses should be used?
1. Main (stock or FC alt)
2. EMS
3. Injectors
4. Head lights
5. Head light retractors

Those are the 5 main lines that were used in the OEM fuseable link setup.

For those of you that plan on doing this I will update this thread with pictures on how I went about this.

Please reply to the AMP fuse sizes as reference to the number above.
IE: 1. Main (80A)

cheerz,
vern

Swapping in the FC fuse block was a relative breeze. Just a little bit of soldering and I punched a hole through the FC mounting bracket to connect to the existing threaded hole on SA the strut tower. The bracket's made of soft metal.

I used 30 amp for the retractors and head and 60 for the main w/S5 FC alt.
