Well, we have pulled finger and got quite a lot of wiring done this weekend.

Park and headlight wiring is almost completed, as with most of the dash.

Have still to finish a couple of relays for the starter motor and parklights.

Need to re-run a wiring back to the fuel tank for the reserve light, forgot to do that when i ran the wiring for the sender unit.

Fuse box wiring is the next big job, should take a day or 2.

We're thinking another 2 weekends and wiring should be completed.

 

Sandblasted the rocker covers ready to go to the powder coaters this week.

:hmm: Bloody hell

 

I can't even repair two wires, let alone comprehend that......

[TRD ke70]

reverse lights i remembered, but the reserve light i forgot. :hmm:

 

As for cutting the wrong wires, i have done that a couple of times, was lucky there was plenty of length on them.

 

Who said anything about understanding any of it?? :blinks:

I notice an ignition coil inside the cockpit. What's the reason for that?

With rally cars try to keep all the electrics inside so they don't get wet when you go through water.

[TRD ke70]

Trev is on to it.

 

Takes away any chance of the coil been damaged by stones, heat, and water.

You'd be surprised how many cars stop after a water crossing in a rally, this is also why we don't run foam air cleaners and we water proof our plug leads and dizzy.

Wiring is finished, apart from a couple of little things to do under the bonnet.

We can start fitting all the dash and stuff into place now. :P

 

Now it's on to the engine stuff now, baffle the sump, clean and assemble the bottom end, then the block can go in.
