Final check - Is the electric ready?

[torbsim]

Hi guys,

After months of hard work and reworking the entire engine bay, I'm ready to start the 351C for the first time.

I just want to be sure that I have done everything as in the original engine bay. I would appreciate it if I could judge together with you if everything with the wiring is good.

Don't hesitate to give me your feedback and comments to get me off to a good start.

Please take a look!
Ben

Best I can tell, you need to swap the two #37 yellow wires. Factory circuit breaker was directly attached to the battery side of the starter solenoid. See factory wiring diagram attached. This factory diagram is for Mustangs with the factory ammeter/oil pressure/temp gages and tachometer.

Isn’t that wire labeled as 17 actually 37?

Good point! The labeling changed from one picture to the next.

Yeah, correct. My fault.

I only asked because I couldn’t find a 17 on my wiring diagram. Overall, I think your wiring looks very original.

I have not yet fitted a fuse to the one 37 mm cable. This could also be a reason why it still looks as if the two 37s are wired incorrectly. I'll check that again. Your diagram helped me the most, thanks again @Steve McMahan !!!
