I like the gold stacks.

 

Gold Stacks are good.

 

SO, I was going "a little overboard" with the Squirt stuff!
I was requested by admin to remove it (& I DO RESPECT THAT!!)..
I Really Appreciate the heads up and TOTALLY AGREE!
Thanks for keeping my Build Post up!!...
Just a small part of my project and I'm trying hard to keep a Traditional
appearance...

YOU GUYS! THANKS FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
Gives me spark when i feel like chillin' in the hammock!
WIRING:
With the wiring gremlins I've had...
I decided to take the Back Board and Dash out...
Redo / clean up all the FU'd wiring, from redoing the relays 3x.
Get rid of those Chinese Relays.
New fuse block! glass fuses would probably have fallen out at first pot hole.
Upgrade with some "electric check valves".
Looking for a military quick connector with enough pins for the dash...
Everything's so crammed in there it would help when trouble shooting in the future!
Move Spark away from sensitive equipment.
etc. etc. etc.

 

OT?......lesson learned....
this is what happens when you rush it
this thing was living in there...
Didn't need to remove the body harness connector..but it works!
Start Fresh!

Thanks, Frank

 

It's a little pricey paid 90 bucks for mine with all the connectors and 5 30A relays.
But is really compact and good quality

That's really not a bad price. Did you get Mike Sierra working?

 

Looking forward to seeing more on the wiring!

 

Mike Sierra got a new. Charlie Papa Uniform.
Works great.
Just have to fix the Gremlins in the wiring and get the coil away from the wiring harness

Wow so much power "what's the frequency Kenneth?"

 

Dash - Refresh paint.
+ Holes for indicator lights.
Time to start wiring again.

Man that's wiring is some scary looking stuff! At least you got the smoke kit working but is it calibrated? Trying to put smoke back into a 22 AWG wire when your settings are on 10 AWG wire can create real problems.

 

Painted Dash / Cowl support & steering column...couldn't reach before...
Soldered a piece of copper tubing to the horn wire...made a bushing from a screw driver handle.
"Quick Remove Steering Wheel Horn Connector."

Not period correct....but with everything crammed in there it's a Great Space Saver ..
And those $#!+ relays are gone.

New fix required...
Put the terminal strip on...
Screws Facing DOWN!? Wasn't a problem when I attached the harness on the table
Some moron used the bracket that was on it...PITA to terminate...upside down...!

I know very little of these wiring dilemmas but applaud your conviction to finding the solutions on your own...this is a form of plateau in the build...I am confident you will hang glide off the end of that with your solution...

 

Dash board quick connector...
Testing the pins.
Had to redo first connector 9-10 had some solder between 'em...argh!

Spent a day making these tiny little brackets... Now some paint so they don't rust...

Kinda F1 inspired...lower radius is longer...creates down force at high speeds...................................................................................(I'm just kiddin!)

If you flip them over will they help you do a wheelie

 

Finished the other Dash connector last night..... Real PITA!

Interesting why not plug to plug?

 

That IS Plug to Plug...(only One!)
I ŦƱƈĶȜƉ ÜƤ the first female connector trying to de-solder and re-doing it...
(I probably don't have the right Soldering Iron for this job...
Had to hit it with a Propane torch to melt the solder...)
PITA!..But it's done!...Onwards and Forwards!
