Re: Show your motor...

What do all you guys use to clean up messy wiring? Is the garden variety flex-loom like they sell at Home Depot OK? I'm concerned about melting it.

I spent weeks doing mine, lots of tech-flex and 3 to 1 shrink wrap. All from parts-express.com, and I am just doing my best to keep it away from the headers...

Re: Show your motor...

Thanks Beatcoaster!

That is one sweet motor! It's my weekend to detail the engine compartment. The hints will help out a bunch. I'm guessing it won't look that pretty but someday . . .

BTW is that an ammeter on the hot side of your battery?
