Battery in Trunk Wiring That Exceeds NHRA Requirements
The "S" cable going to starter on engine... nothing in this cable to protect it.
The cable with "SR" going to starter relay on your fender, needs some type of breaker or fuse in line. Either cable going to the cutoff switch can be fused. In or out, no biggie. This all goes back to what is the worst case deal. On this car, I put it in the line between the battery and cutoff switch...
WHY... Because the switch has a panel behind it. IF the car was to take a hit in rear and push the cutoff into that panel, dead short. Kill power with a fuse before cutoff, dead short, fuse pops, no danger.
