bp-guy Posted May 12, 2007 Author Posted May 12, 2007 (edited) Motor is in!!! I really like the jet coat black headers, everone has the silver so I wanted something different. Here is a somewhat better look at the wiring job. I will get the guys name. They are all mini buss fuses in a water tight box. Sorry the last pic is fuzzy but you get the point right? Its a real sanitary wiring job, wish I had that type of skill! Edited May 12, 2007 by bpguy Quote
bp-guy Posted May 17, 2007 Author Posted May 17, 2007 (edited) Not alot of progress this week on the car.. I did manage to get my off-road tires and mount them. They came out pretty good I think Fronts 31x10.5x15 Rear 33x12.5x15 Edited May 17, 2007 by bpguy Quote
offroadracer Posted May 17, 2007 Posted May 17, 2007 Why didnt he use breakers instead of fuses?? much better for a sand or offroad car, if something pops you dont have to pull and change fuses just push and reset the breaker, i switched over all of mine in my race truck to breakers, alot easier if you get a hot or faulty circuit Quote
bp-guy Posted May 18, 2007 Author Posted May 18, 2007 There is a main breaker that should trip if something goes wrong. I am not sure what all the fuses go to as of right now, they aren't labeled yet. He has the master diagram and we will label them from that. But I will ask about that thanks. Quote
desertskyz Posted May 18, 2007 Posted May 18, 2007 Is this not fun or what! Are you doing any of the work yourself. Because that is MOST gratifying. Car looks gooooood. Quote
bp-guy Posted May 18, 2007 Author Posted May 18, 2007 (edited) Is this not fun or what! Are you doing any of the work yourself. Because that is MOST gratifying. Car looks gooooood. I mounted the tires onto the rims. Other than that the hardest work I did was write a really big check!! I built my yellow Chenowith that I just sold and built my first rail as well. Your right it is alot of fun and you take pride in what you have accomplished. I went the lazy route this time but I like the way its going. Edited May 25, 2007 by bpguy Quote
bp-guy Posted May 25, 2007 Author Posted May 25, 2007 (edited) more progress... Radiator is in... more panels... As soon as the panels get finished up, the rest go to powder coat and final assembly. Edited May 25, 2007 by bpguy Quote
