I won't be providing these kits any longer. I apologize to the members who have been waiting. Please feel free to use any info in the thread to help you come up with a fuse solution that meets your individual needs. Parts list on last page. Tom NEW INFO FOR EARLY CARS. THEY CAME WITH ONLY THREE RED WIRES!! Two 4.0mm and a much larger wire running forward to the dash area. Please check before ordering. Last round this summer. Maybe next winter I will do this again if there is a demand. See pics of the new 4-way and 6-way kits, and the completed install of mine. Kits are designed to go on the outer edge of the battery box, however some have mounted elsewhere. If you have need for longer wires so you can mount yours differently, let me know and we can make that work for you. Also, please see the two pages of info below. You should be able to print copies. From the supplier: 4/6 individually fused circuits with connections that enter and exit from the bottom allow this fuse block to be mounted in narrow locations. Clear plastic dust cover is included. Max load capacity for all circuits combined is 50 amps, 65 amps for the 6-way. Connections are made using 1/4" female push-on connectors. I will open round four as I already have 3 folks who want one. There will be two models, a 4-way and a 6-way, and three stages; 1-basic, 2-connections on and soldered, 3 - with new battery connector. 4-way stage 1- basic kit $25.00 stage 2- connectors on and soldered and harness heat shrinked $30.00 stage 3- With new battery connector $32.00 6-way stage 1- basic kit $30.00 stage 2- connectors on and soldered and harness heat shrinked $35.00 stage 3- With new battery connector add $37.00 I will leave this open until 5 June, them order parts. It looks from the last round that you can expect about a month to receive the kit. IE: if I order parts by 6 June, the kits will ship no later than 30 June. . Attached thumbnail(s) |

I have just completed complete wiring of my Sixer including the engine to car items. To protect my electrical since I had the potential for shorts, I fused all the battery wires plus the battery wires I added with 20amp fuses (fuse holders can handle 30amps) for protection. The car is alive with complete electical functioning. Did not have even small sparks on the negative terminal when connecting the battery. Only problems I had was with the turn signals/emergency flasher lights, light connections, and a couple of grounds.
I decided to leave the fuses in on the hot battery wires and so far I have not had any problems. It does make trouble shooting for shorts, etc. easier since the circuit can be more readily traced. Steve Hurt |
