The relay board is used if your alternator does not have an internal regulator.
You don't have to use it but you will need to mount the external regulator some where/some how. It is wise to know what alternator you have before buttoning up/installing the motor.

Nathan...I'm using a weather proof trailer type connector for the connections I needed. Off the top of my head the reverse lights, oil pressure, and starter solenoid wires come to mind....I still use the external regulator alt. and the wire connector from the alt. that went to the relay board connects directly into the regulator...I did it because of not many things on the relay board were going to be used and I eliminated future pin connection problems with the board....

On the topic of alternators and regulators,

I also have a '79 3.0 engine and (obvious newb question) was wondering how to tell if my alternator has an internal regulator or not. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Don't mean to hijack your thread but this did stimulate my thoughts...

What's with all the carbs? I thought FI was the intake of choice around here.

Or they afraid their engines don't look as cool? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

The relay board is also used for the rear window defogger, heater blower motor and fuel pump. Most 914's don't have a rear window defogger and most six conversions don't use the other stuff on the relay board anymore. I also dumped mine when I converted to a six.

Necro-bump!

I was just about to post this exact same thing, so no need to create a new thread...

Orange race car, battleship gray engine compartment, very visible engine compartment with GT engine decklid and no rain tray.

Color thoughts on engine sheet metal powdercoating? I'm leaning toward orange.
