I have finally finished the fuse panel wiring along with the battery - the last two wires (one to oil pressure sender and other to alternator) were also ran. Just a few to tidy up under the bonnet before the amps go in and wiring starts for them.
![]() Also the 8.5mm silicon spark leads were connected (getting the lead from coil to firewall shortened currently). Now the carbs can go back on. ![]() |

Not that you don't already have your hands full, but have you considered the serpentine belt system for the alternator? I'm just not a fan (no pun) of the stock pulley system as you can get a lot of odd vibation from the belt and with a big fan they can slip.

The Serp system would also look really nice with how fit, trim, and clean everything else is!

I did think about it but I wasn't aware there was a type IV crank pulley available in the serpentine system. Also the upright conversion I bought already came with this crank pulley, and with funds drying up fast I couldn't justify changing yet another change (have had too many changes already!!).

No haven't had the stereo running just yet (Can't wait to do so soon though!). I have to figure out how I am going to mount the distribution block and crossovers before I start cutting the wires (don't want to do a temporary install then have to rewire everything because I've changed location of the bits). I will hopefully get started on this side of things shortly.

Hey Alan,
Where you thinkin of mounting the Xover's & Distro block? I was lookin at the pix seen you used the 10awg to the starter.. If you get any dimming in the lights you may try running 4awg to the Alt,Starter.. Just a thought Looks great hope to see a pik of some rosted rear tires soon..
