Rewiring my EFI Magnum - 1970 Dart Swinger
I bought some of these "Packard 56" terminals and replaced most of the wires on my the engine bulkhead harness. I removed the fusible old link because it was trashed, and I'm wiring that connection into my relay box where it will go through one of the PAL fusible links in the box. The black charge wire won't be coming directly from the alternator like a factory setup, instead the charge wire will be going to the relay box, through a fusible link, then to the bulkhead connector. Very similar to the Rams and Dakotas from the 90s.
I think the Magnum oil pressure sensor uses the same resistance range as my factory rallye cluster oil pressure gauge, so I wired in the Magnum connector hoping I'll be able to see that oil pressure gauge move for the first time ever. I have had a mechanical Autometer oil pressure gauge since forever, but my engine already has a T with the Magnum sensor, so why not give it a try.
