Bat was easy, wire tuck is a pita!! Extending and shortening the wires, soldering, and making sure there's a good connection going through the wire. Cause I will kick myself in the head if it doesn't start cause I was to lazy to make sure each wire had good polarity.

Nice man, looking good! Next time I have the trans out of the car I'm going to relocate the fuse box in front of the passenger side shock tower. It really cleans up the engine bay.

Post Re: 1g. Wire tuck and nhra battery relocation
Well here's the battery relocation.
The battery will be in an aluminum Taylor battery box. Since I can't weld that will be added once the car runs.
Image
Mounted the stinger 175a midi fuse for the the starter, fusible links using a 4 awg, it's feed by 1/0 awg that runs from the on position on the kills witch.
The alternator has its own 4 awg with a 150 anl fuse that is connected to the off position on the killswitch so that it is always being charged.
Image
Mounted the kill switch at the rear taillight, had to cut a good chunk of metal.
The fuel pump will be wired into the on position on the kill switch. So that if I need to cut power to everything on the car, I just need to jump out and run to the back and switch it off lol.
I think it is time to invest in a fire extinguisher.
Image

Just a picture of the wires.

I really hope all my wiring was good since the wire tuck is still in pieces lol. More to come.

Post Re: 1g. Wire tuck and nhra battery relocation
This is how the wire tuck. Just needs to be wrapped in some braided sleeving.
I cut a good chunk of wires out, shortened a lot of wires, all connections will be by the rear motor mount. Tps, isc, resistor, starter and reverse, cas, knock, maf (I think that's all the pigtail connections I retained). Got rid of a bunch of crap lol. There is no write up on how to as I was learning along the way. Dsmtuners has a whole thread on engine harness with a description of the connectors and color of wires that run through.
Wire loom gone
Image
Sorting out wires one by one and labeling each one
Image
Sorted out, tucked, just needs to be wrapped in braided sleeving
Image

Now I just got to find a place to mount the fuse box. But that will be next year I think I've done my fair share for soldering wires for the whole year.

Looks great man! I hear you on the fuse box. I'm going to do mine eventually too, but after all the other shit I was like, "eff that!" I'll tackle that at a later date.
