<VV> HPT - Part 2

[jvhroberts at aol.com]

 Now THAT'S the way to do this! I'd be hesitant on the use of circuit breakers. My experience has always been, they insert more than an acceptable amount of resistance in the circuit. If you REALLY want protection, use a MAXI fuse or equivalent. My approach would be to make sure everything is good enough not to need it!

Thanks for the suggestions, and sometime I will try a circuit breaker. 
For now a quick run by the junkyard netted a few S-10 junction blocks for 
2$.  Mounted one up and all is well.   Except the charging issue that made 
me start looking in the first place.  Maybe the new solid state voltage 
regulator I put in a few weeks back.   Few small issues still to figure 
out on this car.   As Tim mentioned (Thanks Tim) - I have two new family 
additions to take up my time.   So the goal was to get this one on the 
road as a good family Corvair - 140PG Four Door with A/C.  Certainly 
drives 
nice. 
Here is a pic of the block installed.
