Hi gsmith660,

Stupid question, did you buy the pigtails as well or make those up yourself? If you bought them, where did you get them? I didn't see them on the site you referenced for the fuse blocks.

Thank you,

No I made all 58 or so. I crimped and soldered the spades on the wires then shrink tubed the spade conn. and then shrink tubed the blue shrink tube with smaller tube to one prevent the blue from coming off the spade and to to add some strain relief to the wire by not allow to radical a bend hence the 1 nich spacer on the fuse block.

Looks really good. I like the way you have managed to ensure the cover still works.

Yes - Awesome job! This thread has inpired me to take my required repair of my CDI box (replacing Bosch unit with MSD) to the next level and make a new panel for that area.

Thanks!

That is a new project later as I will be putting in a MSD and aTbitz EFI kit on my motor I may add that to this thread when I get started. Good luck and thanks for all the comments. Jerry

Just thought I would give an update since several have inquired, it's been 2 years since this was installed and have had no issues all my gremlins went away except my wiper gremlin and I am thinking it has to be an internal issue so I will live with it until I need to replace it.
