Re: Project "My Happy Mess"

ty Ryan.

Notice I didn't wrap the "junction" or the three wires (blue/white/red) near the radiator support with the other wires.
That's because I'm waiting until we're certain everyting is accurate (pretty sure the illustration is accurate and that I did wire it correctly).
Using an 8AWG wire from the alternator>"junction">cab/battery Charge wire - insures I will have adequate amps at idle (especially, since it will have plenty of compression to condend with).

- I'll wrap them better/together afterwards. I may get a "junction" block to mount to the driver's fender at a later date and rewire the "junction" to the block instead. like this like this
- It'd be a cleaner install and allow me to add wires without having to reopen the "junction" to access the wires.

The only thing remaining (that I can remember) is bolting the torque converter to the flywheel. That'll take a few minutes.
Then add oil, fluids, etc... real quick and we should be able to fire her up!!
