What do you plan on running for a fuse box?

Well I picked up a 99-02 ls1 harness off summit (ha that doesnt include an alternator hook up ) when they were on sale for $500, the harness comes with their basic micro fuse block for running the engine/fans. Then with an abs delete. I just have to worry about mounting a few relays for the lights, I know you are the "go to guy" when it comes to theses lq4/lq9 swaps. Have you seen alot of reloations in fbody?

Yeah, I havnt done a whole lot of digging yet, but ive seen post of ppl saying they dont want to chop. My plan is to run my head lamp wiring inside the fender support, and hopefully I can find room enough under dash for the rest of it.

The LT1 Fuse Box can go under the dash easily..so if you got one that was smaller then it should work out.
