Double Bypass

I finally got my new to me 66 B-Cuda to stay running, and not leave me stranded. I performed a double bypass on the bulkhead connector. I tried dissasembling all the connectors, and cleaning them, but it just wouldn't work. The problem contacts were the fusible link, battery to amp meter wire connection, and the alternator wire to amp meter wire connection, both high amp wires. I drilled out both halfs of the bulkhead connector, and did away with the contacts. I soldered in two, one foot lenghts, of 10 gage wire, slid them thru the drilled out connector, and looped the slack above the pedals. I also put in a new fusible link, which is brown now, instead of blue.
Now I can open, and close the doors, slam the hood, pound on the fire wall, and it will stay running. Before, if I hit a pot hole it would quit running, no matter what id did.
Factory Service Manual with the correct electric schematic, made the job a lot easier.
Next job is bypassing the amp meter.

So if any of you have the above problems, check you bulk head connector, and do it with the proper electrical schematic.
