I LOVE this build. Such a rad idea and execution. We need a dirt video asap!

Awesome Dude. Followed the whole build on DR. Cool to hear it run.

i really enjoy wiring. it is nice to make things super easy to reach and check out. the courier never had any issues in its years.
the dash panel comes off with 2 screws
the main dash has 4 small sheet metal screws and it pulls right off

 

[turbomonty]

1 dirty alternator power for dirty little 12v pigs ( fan motors, big lights, ect )
2 injector fuses
3 COP fuses
4 clean right off the battery tit
5 clean 12 volts
6 clean switched 12 volts

 

[turbomonty]

i put in a nice little dual pump system

megasquirt primes and runs main pump which i can toggle select on the dash
secondary pump megasquirt turns on above 3000 rpm and 5 psi roughly

 

[turbomonty]

If you don't use lids on your cups, it also doubles as a smoke machine.

I dig the skeleton style though.
