100 Amp goes to a Bussman Fuse/Relay center in the passenger side finder cavity. The 2 gauge on the bottom of the buss bar goes to the back to the battery and will have a 200 AMP circuit breaker at the battery.

Fusible links are fine for smaller gauge. All of my wires are 4 gauge and above.

More minor updates. Been plugging away on the wiring and plumbing..still

I previously showed shots of the main rear brake line but here it is installed.









I utilized some weld tabs, stainless spacers and Notchead clamps for the rear portion. This places the hard tubing tucked away in the cavity near the rear end housing. I will use a flex hose to go from here to the rear housing Tee connection.





I received my first hose assemblies back using BRMS fittings and hose. I also have the next set mocked up and ready to ship out for assembly.





I was able to squeeze my radium engineering catch can onto the core support. The hose assemblies ready to ship out in the above pictures actually are for the catch can and the steam ports



And just to show some of the detail on the wiring I included the below picture. I am labeling every connection on the car under clear heat shrink. I need to take some more pictures this weeked. I am actually getting close to having the body harness of the car pretty much done and laid out.



I have a few more parts on the way as of this week. I ordered my master cylinder and hydroboost unit so I can complete the brake hard lines. Getting closer to getting this think started up for the first time...
