No1 Engine power wiring 08-10-2011
Had another great day on Saturday..
http://xs458starter.posterous.com/
We found a great way to get the cables in to No1 engine’s nose. By removing the igniter leads for the IPN starter, we were able to use the strut they occupied.
Cables cut to length, and protected with fibre-glass tape.
Now got to do some metalwork to mount the power connectors in two panels on the Port side. Need to pick up some crimp terminals, p-clips etc, for finishing off the cable installation! 😀
Lots more photos on the blog: http://xs458starter.posterous.com/
