OK!
Its been a while, school and work never end. i have everything for a brand new custom wiring system coming in the mail. ive ripped out all the original wiring, searched and labeled every circuit i need in whats left of the original harness. i have hundreds of feet of 4 awg- 8,10,12,14,16 awg and im using all new components such as circuit breakers and solid state relays, waterproof multi contact connectors, new terminals, brake controller, solid state running light/brake light blinker 3 wire converter, wire organization/ thermal protection sleeve, heat shrink, electrical tape, and fuse blocks and new electrical and mechanical switches in the steering column rebuild. the solid state relays will be bolted to a heatsink under the dash. and 16 switches in a panel will go on the shifter floorboard pan with battery selector. new steering wheel, and found a sweet deal on some ballistic kevlar, and have my seat heating pad kit.
ill have pics up in a while, ive also drawn out exactly what im doing on the multifuel idea.
im buying a set of headers and making a intake charge(fuel and air) heat exchanger so that the q jet dumps fuel and air into dual 3" pipes that are heated by the headers, then rise to the intake manifold. i have a few sketches, and ive already found the parts i need to make it all work, mostly tubing and flanges, the total price for the parts is around $1000. and thats about what i spent on all this wiring stuff. but this is about to get really fun!
on monday im picking up another used 460 efi engine, this way ill have an easy way to make it fit my exact engine in the bronco.
also my buddy is cutting out the wood panels im going to cover with kevlar and resin, i already have the 12" subs and 6x9 speakers. there will be 4 12" subs and 4 6x9's the amps
boast 6000 watts max and 3000 watts max which we all know isnt RMS, but thats what they say lol ive got matching tv stereos for the boat and truck incase i loose a faceplate, im also getting a bit of window tint to redo the power windows. every window but the windshield will be 5% windshield at 35%
im getting two lockboxes to go under my front bench seat, nice place for 9mm
i have bought a large amount of 1000D cordura. its water proof and i like it enough i think im going to cover the front and rear seats with it, and maybe a little used on the rear panel upholstery inside the back of the bronco. this stuff seems pretty rugged and durable. kind of like extremely strong thick and waterproof backpack synthetic material.
almost done fabbing the rear tire swing away aswell
ive been buying a bunch of stuff and in 2 weeks my schedule will clear up for the summer. ill be making real progress then.
peace
