I am finally making visible progress now that have I gotten over the idea of drilling holes in a new car. I have looked through the search areas of prior threads and found plenty of very good feedback. But certain questions remain. So...........
1. Since the idea is to have "clean" firewalls, has does one go about securing the fuse panel on the wiring harness without drilling into the wall?
2. I have an SA 406, so if you have the same, what are the cranking amps for the battery you installed?
3. Just making sure, I need to drill 7 holes in the tunnel for the wiring needs. The rear wiring, the engine harness, the speedo cable, the MSD connector to the distributor and the two cables for the oil/water temp sensors. ???
Finally, I have learned quickly that the days of an all purpose auto parts store have gone the way of the rotary phone. I did a frame off restoration on my Jeep in '95 and got all the automotive replacment parts from one NAPA store. I have yet to find simple items in one single place. Jegs, Summit and the UPS driver now have to serve that purpose. I am taking Alan's advise and looking for a good local speed shop.
Enough said, let's build.
Thanks all, Ric
