Thank you for the advice on the cloth wire. How do you pull connectors out of the junction block.

I am beginning to see that I really need to re-wire this truck. I just do not have the funds for it right at the moment. Some of the wires going into the fuseblock appear to have melted the plastic around the terminal. I am afraid getting them to release will be quite difficult. What gauge wire should I use for that?

Is there a good kit that is not terribly expensive that is HEI and internal regulated alternator available. I see the painless but I just cannot afford 500+ dollars at the moment.
