Great build man love the progress

[@Toolman83]

Thanks sir

[@OswaldMangor]

Thank you very much.not sure how much will it cost. I have a LN166 that needs the entire rewire job, to bad im in another country, but if it wort purchasing the harness kit and the panel form someone would be a great help.

Excellent video and product! I'm going to save up for this set up! I have a g body with a 5.3 carbureted with msd ls box.

[@Toolman83]

Thanks yea let me know I can do one on carbon fiber for right around 250 for 8 position probably can do 200 on abs plastic

Hey! Those pos neg terminal blocks. Do you happen to have a link or description for them?

[@infamousftfw]

Also, with the relays, I've always cut the little tab on the lock they still slide together nicely and stay together. But it does make it easier if you have to replace or whatnot.

[@Toolman83]

I don’t have the link but if you go on Amazon put in battery lug or battery pos and neg post they pop up if you watch the video on the one I did for my car those are some nice post as well

[@Toolman83]

What’s good Maan!! Question’where are you located’? I got a street drag car that needs the stand alone Megasquirt pnp pro 3 pinned n wired up. Let me know if ur interested’Make some Enz while ur at it. Thanks for the videos!! On the relay n fuse boxes!!

[@Toolman83]

I’m in Michigan, I’ve never done one before but I’m sure I can do it is the MS new and what kind of car?

[@rollinassassin9499]

what gauges wires do u use connecting the switches to the panel and from the relays to the components

[@Toolman83]

You can use 16 from the switches to the panel and from the panel to whatever your running would depend on what your running like a fan I’d use 12 it also depends on the length of the wire too

[@craigmorrell1052]

I can not use a fuse block, I am running electric fans that draw 40 amps, those fuse blocks are rated at 30 amp per circuit and 100 amp total. But would work for my electric water pump (10 amps) and msd (7.5 amps) but fans have to be separate with inline 40 amp fuses and 10 gauge wire.

[@Toolman83]

I’m about to wire my fans I believe mine were wired off a relay before but their only 80w each

[@Toolman83]

And this is especially true if your using a controller to kick them off n on bc that’s when they draw peak amps when they kick on but also sounds like you have some monster fans lol

[@khancross]

How many relays does a classic car actually need? Of cource it depends on the devices but lets say you want to keep it basic with additionally radio, power windows, central door lock and a subwoofer

[@Toolman83]

Honestly like radio power windows door locks they really don’t need one. Race cars use them to run like fuel pump, water pump, fan’s, nitrous, and stuff like that. A classic car probably wouldn’t need relays if everything is mechanical just a fuse panel really

[@deonwalker695]

Dont use those sheet panel screws. May save you some headache in the future. Use rivet nuts (nutserts) the correct name.

[@Toolman83]

Yea their called rivnuts

[@rollinassassin9499]

whats a complete panel cost without switches ???

[@Toolman83]

Depends on what you need but normally I do 8 relays 250 shipped

[@damronthumsuansano7900]

[@damronthumsuansano7900]
