Thx, TOM. The fuse block saved me again. I pm'd TOM & thanked him regarding the 1st incident but thought I would make the 2nd time public. I installed a Ford Style starter solenoid for preventative maintenance. Turns out it was a cheap CPOS. After < 2 weeks it bit the dust. I had just re-installed the engine and after perhaps 3 starts it reared its ugly head. It fused and the starter would not quit turning over. Before I could grab an SAE wrench to loosen and remove the neg post the 25a fuse blew. Whew! Wires were warm but still intact. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) I bypassed the solenoid until I can make it to the junk yard to buy a good one. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) Anyway, that's twice that your kit saved me. Thx, again, kent

Kent,
That is good news to hear!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) That the fuse block saved damage, not your solenoid going bad! Really makes me glad I went thru the making of these.
Thanks,
Tom

Tom,

I hope this grabs alot of interest, especially since many had questioned whether this would do enough to warrant moving forward.

One extremely important milestone has been reached. The answer is: yes, it helps to mitigate electrical fires.

Thought people might be interested in some installed pics...

Kit looks clean and can be installed in 1 to 2 hours if you're being careful. (I happened to do mine while the engine was out of my car which obviously makes it a snap.)

Note: tom includes a plastic mounting plate, I substituted a piece of stainless bar I had lying around.
