Really quick question

Planning on swapping over my fuel pump rewire kit next week (possibly tonight). I have the battery relocated to the trunk, So technically i should just have to wire the positive like 3 feet right? This could be really RLY easy.

Yup and if you got a battery cutoff switch in the back it makes it that much easier to setup

Re: Really quick question

why would a battery cutoff switch make it easier?

Re: Really quick question

What ever you do, put an inline fuse on the wire as close to the battery as possible. You don't need another fire sale.

+1, not just to the fuel pump, the whole positive connection to the battery!

Same reason why you'd need a battery cutoff!

Exactly, either a big breaker or some type of fuse/switch that will disconnect the battery from the circuit of there is a short. Any other direct feeds off the battery should also have inline fuses.

Re: Really quick question

I usually like to take a peice of wire and connect it to the positive and let it dangle right over the negative, i like living life on the edge. lol
