      Finally finished up the battery relocation (for now). The top terminals that I was using didn't fit tightly enough on the battery, and the gold coating began flaking after 2 days. I decided to use the side terminals until I can find a quality part for the top:






      I finished up re-wiring using the MAD Electrical "New System". The only difference is that battery is in the trunk, and I ran a 2 awg from the firewall bulkhead connector to the remote starter solenoid, which is also in the trunk. I also added another CN-1 Terminal next to the horn relay on the radiator support. Most of the wiring is wrapped with the Painless split braided sleeve, so it cleans up the engine bay quite a bit.




      Here are two of the CN-1's that I used. The kit came with 3, so I installed the other one on the passenger side radiator support (not shown):






      And here's the new Power Master 140 amp alternator and chrome brackets that I installed. The alternator actually bench tested at just over 160 amps, so it should be plenty for my needs. You can also see that I just have my heater hoses running in a loop using a brass connector between the supply and the return hoses. I removed the old heater core, and haven't bitten the bullet on a Vintage air unit just yet:
