I have junction strips like the one you are using on your motor plate in my Mustang, but they are in the cockpit. Each one of those connections represents an exposed hot wire in an area that could get splattered with liquid like water or....gasoline! Having toasted all my wiring in an engine fire, I would recommend fabricating a cover of some sort for that.

Are those circuits fused? If not, perhaps fabricate an insulated strip with a string of Bussman circuit breakers on it to replace the connection strip. That would protect your equipment and help prevent a short while still providing the convenience of being able to disconnect something at the turn of a nut.

Dale,

everything is fused with the Digital Delay fuse/relay panel.

The Super 10 progress is good. At this time I think a test at Texas Motorplex July 25th bracket race is completely within reach

Most likely I will fire it up this weekend and check all systems for operation.

I already know all electrical items work normally, fuel system good to go, brakes ready, so stand by for smoke! [good smoke from a new engine]

Good to hear you are ahead of schedule, Larry.

I have a question for you regarding your Hurst Quarter Stick. I have one in my Mustang and the Allen head screws that hold the trigger and shift lever to the main stick keep falling out. Is this unusual or did you Lock Tite yours? My shifter fell apart in traffic coming back from the paint booth today. Embarrassing... I've taken to keeping a hex key set in the car at all times.

Dale, that shifter is at least 7 seasons and has been in three different cars. Never any loose screws.

Sounds like locktite would be your friend
