Hello EVERY BODY
Like Tony Bingelis say's, it's not that hard, wire one circuit ata time and
then do the next one.Plan it out before you start, this is 30% of the
job.Well as I was laying it out. Put my 6 engine inst. upside down on the
table,this is going to be easy. As they all mount from the back I thought
I'd pre wire all of them and then install them.Put all the grounds together,
put all the positives together, run a single wire to the switch to turn them
all on together,run a single ground to fuse. DONE. Don't stop here, keep
thinking.As I was on my way to get what I forgot to get the last time, the
light came on. If I ever wanted to remove one inst. how was I going to do
it. Back to the drawing board. I will have to wire all the inst. separatly
with some sort of plug so as to be able to remove one if needed.Now I know
why, but HOW? Well, get a bus bar ( I mean 4 of them)with screw
terminals,run each ground to a screw,run each positive to a screw and repeat
this for the inst.power as well as the inst. lights.( the instructions say
not to ground the lights with the inst. ground)Yes. don't wait to read the
instructions until after your finished.What A plan! Where does one mount
these bus bars?
Well I made channels to fit into the channels that are the firewall
reinforcments. Bolted the bus bars to these new channls then screwed the
channels to the reinforcing channels.I now have 4 bus bars installed.One for
the lights ground,one for the lights positive, one for the inst. ground and
one for the inst. positive.Run a ground wire from the bus bar toa ground
point on the fuse and run one lead from the switch to the positive bus
bar.Put "U" clips on the wires to attach to the bus bar.
HOPE YOU ALL GET THE IDEA BY NOW.
This is not the GOSPEL from PAUL my name is Murray.This may not work for
everyone but it was the best I could muster up on short notice.
GOOD LUCK!
No problem! When I cut the firewall back I had to reinvent the bracing from
the inst. panel to the firewall.In so doing I made 6"x8" panels to hold the
square tubing together.(go back and read how to make this brace between the
inst. panel and the firewall)
