How many pin connector ?

I have a bunch of 16-20ga pins.

I would use it as a quick disconnect for the fuse box.

The gear from LADD arrived today. AMAZING quality. The. Bulkhead connector will be mounted to the firewall and allow for nano-second harness removal:



My pile of gauges is complete. Wide band, water, oil, boost... Yes I will be fabbing up a connector for one-click dash removal as well:



Polyurethane motor mount fill/prep. Not much else to say here, this $#!t sucks to work with.


I painted a few more things and generally re-assembled the front of the motor. The itch is getting BAD.

Too bad you will have it all done by October when I get my first real break from Afg. I would love to help you wire that thing up. I have a bunch of material left over from my build.

Don't forget expandable nylon wire sleeve and heat shrink from www.cabletiesandmore.com cheap to buy in bulk and makes a difference in rat nests of wiring harnesses.

Thought I would show you how they will look. Do you have the lock washers and nuts? I have extras. Also here is the tool to cut the sheet metal.
New connectors for the firewall




I took a lot of research to find the right tool to cut the D-Shaped holes in the sheet metal. Then it took a dozen phone calls to get the damn thing to me. This is a loaner from Deutsch. New in the box will cost you $530 but the loaner is free as long as you only have it for 30 days. A month wait for a tool that I was finished with in 10 muntes.
