      Primary Power Busbar use with upgrades

      So I am currently doing upgrades to my 72 C10, with a Holley Terminator fuel injection is first, then electric fans and Vintage air to follow. I believe these will all require a direct primary power feed. The pick up already has headlight wiring upgrade that has a direct feed from battery. If I have this correct I need a minimum of 4 primary feed sources, and was thinking of using the Bussmann LMI series, https://www.eaton.com/Eaton/Products...ries/index.htm to try and keep as tidy and effective as possible.

      I am not very versed in auto electrics, so wondering if I am on the right track? Is there a better solution. How best to handle relays? Are there other items that will benefit from a direct power source, eg: fuel pump (Boyd Welding Aeromotive Stealth 340 In-Tank pump).

      thanks Roger

      Roger,

      I wrote this up for the Sniper, but everything applies to installing a Terminator X as well:

      If I can be of help with the tuning, let me know.

      I agree the best option is an extra fuse box. If I didn’t have the GMPP fuse box, I would have surely looked to something like the Eaton. The benefit of the GM box is it has relay provisions built in to keep it all together. On the cheap you can also retrofit a GM box. It’s the same one used in a Chevy Astro. I also use the GM HEI wire as the switch power to turn it all on

      The GMPP fuse box is straight out of the Delphi catalog. It can be sourced new relatively inexpensively. The Bussmann box does the same thing, except it is more tidy.
