251 flathead 6/chrysler/dodge wiring.

VroomVroom · Apr 30, 2010

Hello, I have a couple of 251 flathead 6 chrysler/dodge engines. They work fine, but the wiring is a mess. I was looking to re-wire them. There isnt much to it, but as Im not near them at the moment due to work, I was wondering if anyone new of the proper wiring for them. Currently, I have some with built in internal regulators, and some without. The only instrumentation I have on them is amp meter, and oil gauge. A solenoid and key ignition. Thats it, ....so could anyone off hand tell me the wiring for these two gauges, ignition, solenoid, starter and wires from the alternator. That would be all thats reguired. Simple set up. Thanks. You can email me at unclemat @ the hot place.

Hello
It is a simple setup, but I can't tell you off the top of my head how to do it.
Be patient and one of the guys that do restorations will be along and can tell you.
