Here is something else that I just found. Looks really slick and should work great for big power items.

Available in 2, 3, and 4 position...

*edit...I ended up ordering one of these...

You are correct the terminals are not included. Littelfuse catalog is a bit confusing here is the fuse holder line with all the little pieces to lock the blocks together and mounting bosses. http://www.littelfuse.com/~/media/co...-datasheet.pdf

Mouser carries everything and it is confusing how it is all priced. The catalog numbers say they are factory packed in quantity but the number is only for one piece. The 10 gauge terminals for the Maxi-fuse are part number 913-068 catalog reads that is a spool of 1200. On mouser's website it says factory pack 1200 qty 1 for $6.94. That will get expensive with all the little accessories to get those blocks mounted looking factory. I ordered the terminal blocks for 2 and 4 maxi fuses to check out and also ordered 1 terminal so we will see if I get 1200 or just 1 terminal today.

Confirmed 913-068 part number is for 1 terminal end for 10 gauge wire.

So I got one of those today and it was a total bust. The thing is just massive!!!

Need something else...

How large are the circuits and how many relays do you need ?

I went to the Birmingham Pull-A-Part this afternoon and scored some stuff. Not sure what made me think it was a good idea to go to the junk yard at 3:00pm on a day when it was 99 degrees, but I survived...LOL

Scored a big fuse and really center from a 2002 Deville. These are located under the rear seat and can basically do the whole car. Then I got what looks like a modular panel from an Impala. Also scored two modules from under the rear seat of a supercharged Buick Riviera. I am quite certain these include the GM 12110129. All of these came with all the fuses and many relays. Very clean.

I will post some pictures tomorrow and if anyone sees something they like, we can work something out.

Couldn't wait and dragged all that stuff into the house. This is out of the Riv and probably what I will end up using (or a part of it).

Damn. That's a great idea robbing salvaged cars of their fuse panels. I'm going to have to think about that in the future. Only down side might be sourcing the correct pins etc. I'd imagine you could leave pigtails on the existing pins and connect the wires there if necessary. Good job, Andrew.

Thanks Trey!

If you want any of this goodness, let me know. I don't need all of this...LOL

Andrew

Decided to really clean some of this stuff today and see what I got here. I also downloaded the Delphi catalog (section 7) which really helped with sourcing the various parts that I need. These modules and parts are all available through Mouser.

Here is a 4 position base with the battery post connection.

The terminals are easily removable and have a secondary retaining clip (the white thing in the above photo). These are Delphi MetriPack 800 terminals and are rated at 60 amps.

The individual modules just pop in place and are retained by clips to the base.

I really don't have room for a 4 position box under the hood, so with a little creative trimming, I have a 2 position base with the battery lug (Delphi doesn't make such a beast).

Presto...

In the Delphi catalog they have a 6 Maxi fuse module, but as I said, there is no appropriate base for it. Delphi does make a 8 fuse holder and a single position base with a battery lug, but it's longer than the 6 fuse module, so I like this better.
