Ross ERA 427 SC build

[RockBit]

I didn't check ERA's wiring of the plugs but fortunately did not have any problems there. Be careful when you add the block connector to the rear wiring in the drivers footbox. I somehow wired mine as a mirror image of what it should have been, and every time I turned the key to on I blew a fuse. I figured out what was happening and rewired the connector correctly, then all was good.

After I installed the dash and plugged everything together, I had Sheila zip tie all the wiring in place (she is smaller than me). I don't know what she tied things to, but nothing is visible!

I have been lying under dashes many times, and that contributed to my lower back injury, so please be careful.

I also like your instrument layout, all in easy view for the driver.

Twice on my race car my wife and others have taken a picture of me upside down in the driver's seat with my feet straight up pouting to the sky working on something in the foot well. God awful place to get into and out of with the steering wheel in the way. Started removing the steering wheel after the last session.

I opted for the quick disconnect wheel at the last minute. Worth it to me since It makes things a lot easier, quicker to get to....
