Terminal Block
Where can I get a terminal block similar to this one (http://www.madelectrical.com/catalog/cn-1.shtml). I would buy the one at madelectric, however, the line is ALWAYS busy and I simply cannot sit around the phone trying to get through. Anyone have alternatives to the terminal block in the link I posted? THANKS!!!

Re: Terminal Block
I would just grab one in the junk yard. Square body S-10's have them, as do MANY other GM vehicles. |

Re: Terminal Block
GM fullsize 1990+ trucks have a nice 5 or 6 terminal distribution block located on the firewall under the relay cover. It's my personal favorite.

Re: Terminal Block
Mad Electric doesn't answer the phone no matter how long you let it ring. But i finally found a company with a single post "power block". I did I know to not call it a terminal block. They also have dual ones and the bus bar, etc.

Re: Terminal Block
Summit or Jeg's has a single post block. But if your planning on putting it near the battery check into a battery terminal at a local car audio shop. I think Wallyworld even carries them. I bought one from an audio shop that has 2-4ga, and 2-8ga holes,and uses set screws to secure the wires. It's even gold plated. I think it cost me about $15.
Or like others here said, and anyone else I asked when looking for an accessory block, go to a wrecking yard. They're everywhere, and dirt cheap. Jay

Re: Terminal Block
I like these, one hot in & that way you can add the fuse you need too. Got mine at OReily's for about $15.
