Right on. All I'll have to it is block it off and relocate it. Dime?

As far as the BAC, I have block-of plates, so THAT's not too big of an issue.

I think a couple of people and I talked about it and we BELIEVE it goes S > N (Rear to Front, where the water pump is the return, but, I'm not sure.

My battery bit is going to get cleaned up, before Summit gets their *** in gear... Maybe find some other wiring to swap over to the 4G...

As far as that breaker goes, you think I should run it up on the firewall, instead, before the starter?

I did two breakers on my track setup. You have power sources at both ends. The alternator and the battery. In the event of a crash, I didn't want that large cable becoming a huge fire starter.

The dime is placed in the gap between the omp block off plate and the gear. Otherwise you may have it work out a bit and could jam. It just happens that the dime fits in perfectly.

I used the stock battery location as the second side of the cabling.

Breaker at battery & Breaker at other end. The alternator can keep the car powered during an accident and I didn't want a huge 2 gauge cable running next to my fuel lines and frame to go soldering iron style(if it was grounded during accident). This is not an alternator/battery kill switch. Just a safety issue since you're running a huge *** cable which can carry lots of amps.

Here's where mine came into the cabin.



Then stock starter harness and stuff connected on engine bay side.

I like the ambition and effort put into a mysterious project car such as this. I have acquired one myself with lots of extras. Now I'm in a middle of taring things apart restoring pretty much everything associated with the vacuum system.

Right on, man. You're lucky to have the actual BINS - the verts are just open (though I though about trying to source 'em but didn't think they'd fit under the back 'dash').

Mine goes Batt > breaker > starter > 100A Main fuse, ATM. I'll put in another breaker between the last two, later.

I found I had the volts to turn, but not the AMPS.

@JK5S; Thanks for the support. I like a good challenge; bad habit I picked up in the Army.
