Re: project "C10 Fever" (68 factory black 396 swb)

A couple minor updates.

I removed the 1/4” rubber pads from between the frame and the bed. Didn’t really need them anyway, and wow the body lines actually line up now. Yay! It’s the small things... Must be an optical illusion because I could swear the bed was 3/4” high before. I also modified the battery tray under the bed to drop it down another inch to have more clearance above the terminals.

I started working out my engine bay wiring plan. I’ve figured out where/how I’m gonna hide everything. I modified a wiring diagram for the updates...

Electric fans
Electric water pump
1-wire alternator
HEI distributor
Side marker lights
Battery relocated under bed
Jumper terminals on the core support
Other minor tweaks to match 68 wiring
