Things you Find

Thanks for the replies guys...time to hit the shed again and see if I can kick some goals...good information there and Im not too excited about the one wire alternator either but it was on there when I got the car and it works...Im hoping to get a birdcage alternator upgraded amperage wise and fit that at a later date...Ill have another go at the spade in the bulkhead fitting too...I assume this spade is squeezed with some fine needle nose pliars...Im hoping to get that out and at least tidy up previous indiscretions
67Dart273...my entire MSD/ignition and electric fuel pump system is all wired separately...Ive run a fairly hefty power cable to a connector inside the car. The MSD unit is switched manually which also doubles as a "kill switch" of sorts, two wires to the distributor and wires to the coil, kind of side steps all of the OE wiring required for that. Good tip re the wiring for the alternator, I think the one thats currently on there is way too small and also is not protected,Ill get onto that pronto...I have put about 2000 miles on this since Ive owned it and luckily have had no problems electrically...ran out of gas twice now as the gauge doesnt work but thats a whole other hour of reading and testing...Ill get there eventually
