Used some terminal blocks from an 88 c10. Bracket from Davis speed. Excellent product. Mounted terminal blocks using factory holes for voltage regulator had to make a little adapter plate. Small terminal block is for coil wire and alternator excite wire. Working great so far and everything was done under the hood.

Smart move. I wish I would have mounted my homemade terminal board with 4 relays and 5 fuses system on the engine side of the firewall instead of inside the cab. 6'5" overweight 77 year old body just doesn't want to get up under the dash for troubleshooting the failed relay I had last month..

Bill, you mean like this? And that was with out a seat or steering wheel in the way.

Yes, but the seat and steering wheel were installed. And I couldn't get anywhere near that far under. If I did, I'd still be there.

LOL, I hear you on getting stuck. The older I get, the less flexible I am. And a second set of elbows would help too.

I avoid getting under a dash as much as possible, but when I absolutely have to, I have a 2 foot wide piece of 3/4" plywood that I prop up onto the door jamb with a concrete block supporting the outboard end. Then all I have to worry about is falling asleep and rolling off onto the floor! LOL! Jerry
