Many thanks to those who responded to my last post!! That video really helped! Now that I know where the 50 amp breaker & harness connector mount however, a different question has arisen. After much experimentation, the only way that I found to route the harness so that everything goes where it should, is across the front of the block above & somewhat behind the water pump. Logic seems to indicate that that this is most likely how it ran (everything aligns perfectly) however in my experiance (hot rods admittedly) wiring harnesses usually route to the back. There are 2 small "stand off" brackets (attached to the harness originally) that I mounted to accessory holes on the front of the heads that keep the wires safely away from both the block & the belt pulleys. Am I correct with this routing? Any thoughts as to how else it might be ran?
