[QUOTE="mat3833, post: 8842766, member: 587645"] Got a bit of work done today. It rained until about 11:30 this morning so I only had a few hours to work before I had other things to do. I didn't get to pick thd alternator up yet, but it's finished. Managed to get the wiring under the hood done and added the fuse in the cabin. So now I just need the alternator and I should be ready to go. Airbox is still out of the car, but once it's in you shouldn't be able to see the main power wire going to the battery. [ATTACH]49697[/ATTACH] Factory fuse panel still in stock location. I couldn't fit a 0 gauge ring terminal on it, so I smashed a pair of 8ga wires into a 4ga terminal. The run is only like 10 inches and it's fused for 100a. [ATTACH]49698[/ATTACH] New fuse block from knukonceptz. 200a for the starter, 100a for the factory charging lead/fuse panel, and 300a for the run to the back. [ATTACH]49699[/ATTACH] I may end up needing to switch the position of the main power wire to the shared block and add an in-line fuse holder if I pop a 300a fuse. If I start blowing 300a fuses I'll have to look into adding a second run of 1/0 to the back for the battery. I'm fairly sure the knukonceptz 1/0 is good for 450a at 15' and I believe my run is just under 12', but I'd rather be on the safe side. With a little luck I'll make a small "rack" to mount my amps too tomorrow and try to tidy up some wires. Matt [/QUOTE]
