i hope i do //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif





aprox. 78ft of 1/0 power wire. 38ft kicker hyperflex, 40ft memphis 1/0"flat" wire (more ovalish if you ask me, but the core size is right on point so im happy). this will join the roughly 35ft of 1/0 already in there for somewhere in the nieghborhood of 115ft of 1/0, more or less 8 runs, 4 positive, 4 negative.

tomarrow im picking up some split bolts and the wire beefage begins. hopefully next week my HO alty from HOalternators.com will come in. they had some delays with a batch of bad parts they recieved from thier peoples. but im glad they told me and are making me a nice one and not just sending me a defective piece of shit alty //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif. thanks phillip.

it saddens me i wont be competeing in daytona this weekend for the nationals. i just dont have the $$$ for the $80 entry for dB drag, 1 or 2 nights of hotel rooms or any sort of rooming ive looked into, gas, and food. i'm just gonna go up on sunday and check it out, hopefully also meeting scottieJ to converse with him about the direction of my SPL project. after i put in these 8 runs, i'd just need a lil more amp juice and dans marble/horn box id be good to go...buuuuuuut there's always next year and every show i can make in between.

I'll be posting pics of the under the car power/grounds this weekend //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

isnt that memphis stuff like 2 seperate smaller awg wires next to each other in the same jacket?

it looks like they took the regular bundles of 1/0 and just put them right next to each other. still a nice huge thread count and is the same amount of wire as any good 1/0 i've seen.....just arranged slightly differant...

okkkkkkaaaaaayyy. well didnt have enough for 8 runs total like it hought i did...only 6.....good enough for now i suppose...

coming down the front near the engine compartment...



looking towards teh back



had to drill some small holes in the metal to make anchor points



coming back near the rear, looking forwards towards the front



i dont have my ring terminal crimps in yet so by the battery they're just chillin. im about to go over to my boys and drill appropriate hole sin the spare tire wells for these wires to go through for the rear battery. should be pretty sweet when im done.

also id like to note. each run has its own individual zip tie per anchor point. some have more than one just because i felt like it. then in between anchor points i have some zip ties just to keep it together and make it look nice....sorta nice lol...

you could've saved alot of wire by going in a strait line

looks nice... just dont bottom out on a big speed bump or something.. that could be bad.

Nice //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

How much did you pay for all of that? I'll have about 48ft coming to me in addition to the 34 ft. I already have. ($140 for it all lol)

I just ordered a couple ANL fuseholders.Ordering the battery within the next couple of days. I'll have 3 runs of power and 3 runs for ground front to back //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Do you have AIM?

in a perfect world i would have done a straight line...but there werent enough anchor points even if i drilled....and that **** exhaust would get in the way and melt shit that doesnt need to be melted...

Believe me i thought out straight linein it...wouldnt work. it MIGHT work...but i wasnt gonna chance it

140 isnt bad for 48 ft.....hell i paid 125 for 38 ft......i have AIM in my profile but im about to get out the house and be out for alil bit at my boys finishing up the spare tire well... i'll be back later tonight
