<VV> [fastvair] re-wiring going on. Circuit breaker help?

[Bryan Blackwell]

I got some breakers from Waytek wiring for one of my projects, but I don't think it was a late.  Most likely I'd just mount one of their breakers using a fastener in the HRPT hole.

Sizing, the base alternator is 37A, the a/c cars got 47A versions.  Depending on other loads a 50 to 60 amp breaker should work pretty well.  If you're running more load than that, I'd consider adding another positive feed wire and adjusting the breaker size appropriately.  Keep in mind you can't long term feed more amps than the alternator will put out.

Has anybody replaced that with a two-terminal (in-out) circuit breaker or fuse block. The later Corvairs had a fusible link, but I want to install just a single fuse or circuit breaker. What have you installed in this position? How many amps did you use and a source?
