Working on the wiring now, got a fuse box installed so that the main wiring harness is protected. Also setting up a common ground bar, a trick that proved useful installing LS's. The main power lead from the battery connects at the bottom, and I have the power lead from the alternator attached on the right. One advantage to hooking up the alternator this way is that the fuses take the hit before the diodes.
Ok, I have some work cut out for me here....
