OK I finally got my led's installed on my side pipes so they will glow. My question is I bought a small fuse box that I am mounting inside the radio compartment and not sure if I need to run a hot wire straight from the battery or if I can tap off something with continuous power. I noticed the hazard light switch has continuous power but it is awful small gauge wire.
Good hot wire sorce ?

It would be best to run a 12g wire to the battery as your power lead.

Thanks for the input. I guess back on the ground for me. But will be worth it for future hook ups. This is just the first round of lights. Amazing how much I can get done sitting at home all day. But still rather be working. This whole unemployment crap sucks. In 45 years I have never been without a job or even called in sick. Getting a little stir crazy. Trying to keep myself busy so I dont drink all day and smoke all my cigars.

They sound freaking awesome, ask anyone that was at Eureka Springs meet. I wish it was louder but that is just me. I always ran open headers growing up so I am not going to get that V8 sound I love.

Sure you can, drop an LS1 motor in that shot, she'll talk a whole different sound!

Chain, How about a short write-up/pics on the side exhaust? parts, how you did it and a rough cost range. I've been thinking/dreaming about side exhausts for awhile now.

Header 95.00
Side PIpes 250.00

Made some custom brackets to hold pipes and the cost to have exhaust pipes bent and welded.

Go ahead and buy a fuse panel and hook it up to the battery, save you a lot of problems in the future. A lot of options on the auto market.
