Wiring help please

Post by pyrofighting »

I have a 68 F100 with a stock harness. The stock harness is fine. I just want to upgrade the fuse box to a modern blade type. I was looking at painless wiring part 30001 ( link: http://www.painlessperformance.com/webc ... chField=14 ). What do you think. They said with a 68 wiring diagram it should be plug and play. Also, this sit does not have 1968 wiring diagrams, only for the charging system, anyone have one?

And last, I have a stock A/C unit if that matters. And I plan on changing the dist., remove the regulator, install ignition box and coil.

Any help or suggestions would be great.

Thanks :fr:

ok...i understand the fuse box being bad, but a new panel with 39 year old wiring?
You will have to cut & terminate each end into the fuse panel. Not a difficult job, but the ends of the wire can tend to be brittle, & make it a bit harder to install. Not a deal breaker, just something to think about
