Re: Anyone replace the fusebox with a PDM?

Those Rowe Electronics PDMs look pretty slick, but I just can't figure out how (https://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/rowe-electronics-amplink-power-distribution-module) 3 inputs and 6 output circuit would handle even the simplest datto rewire.

Re: Headlight Relay Harness

Dunno if this works.... http:...

Not new here, but a new account

After having a couple of dimes (a '72 4-door and a '70 2-door) between '95 and 2011 I sold my unfinished project car when I had a kid. Now a few years later I'm looking to re-dime my family. I was a long time member of the bluebirds mailing list and I'm pretty sure I had an account on this forum at ...
