I'm shopping for fuse and fuse holders for the main positive battery cable since I'm planning my rear mount battery in the 92 hatch. I like one of these two holders so far but not sure which one I'll go for. Do any of you have an opinion on these or maybe a suggestion for a different one? I'd always keep extra keep extra fuses on board. I'm thinking 200amp on the fuse size. Is that good for a stock compression, stock starter SBF Ford?
Blue Sea
Go Power < more expensive and fuses may be harder to get but I like the built in lugs to attach cable to
I have a Summit battery box (sealed type), #2 welding cable and the various parts for making good connections. I want to run the cable through the interior and out the firewall into the engine compartment. If I protect it properly it should be a really safe setup.
This pic below is what ill probably do, (the optional line) I'm thinking I'll come out the bottom edge of the battery box, go behind the rear side panel, under the rear seat, under the carpet (but above the padding) along the trans tunnel, exit the interior about half way up the firewall (nice grommet of sorts for sure) and into the engine compartment. Once in the engine compartment ill cross the firewall to the drivers side and tap the solenoid. Ive already got a massive alt cable like shown in the image below. Ive mocked it up and it looks fairly easy.
