Long, long time no post... How is everyone?
I've made some progress on the car and recently removed the rusty battery tray and stand with the intention of relocating the battery to the front. I know I've seen write ups on this, but can't for the life of me find any of them. I've purchased an affordable kit from Summit so I have the main parts. I'm just hung up on what the correct thing to do with the original mess of wires that attach to the positive side of the battery in the engine compartment. Thanks. -Aaron |

Two of the red wires at the battery run up front, one to the fuse box, the other to the ignition switch. The other two go to the relay board, one for the FI and the other for the heater fan.
I rerouted the wires for the fuse box and ign switch to run up front to the battey.The battery to starter cable I used had a long 4 gauge wire crimped onto the battery clamp and this was used to supply power for the FI and heater. You could tap this power off the battery post on the starer. |
