A couple of interesting engine bays. First is George's 916...note the AC...nice to have in a six. Second is Richard's super nice V-8....
Here's mine...MSD box is mounted behind passenger's seat...battery up front..no relay board... |

If you're doing a -6 conversion, there is no real need for a relay board as most of the connections could be made directly from the front harness, especially if you're using carbs and a front mounted fuel pump. The relay board only acts as a convenient place to plug in the harnesses, IMHO.
If you look and trace the circuits on a factory -6 you'll see that most of the circuits on the relay board are just direct connections from the main harness to the engine harness, and the others can be easily added with just some simple wiring. |

here is Ziggy's 2.0 back in 2005. it is in teh 10jreen now. I cant believe the beating it has/is taking. I have never treated this motor with the respect it deserves. if it lets go tomorrow, I would be happy. it doesnt owe me a dime or a mile. it has been in 3 cars, 2 of them were DD and AX duty. Part of me wants to take it apart to inspect...nah, right foot down.
