hey guys im new to the forum and ill be on here more often in the future.
I have a 1994 gt which is currently my daily but will also be my complete parts car for my project 1982 mercedes 500 sec (2 door S class)
this will be my first engine swap and while I am mechanically inclined the wiring part is what i will need help with in the future. my plan is to put the full harness from my mustang into my benz as I will be adapting the air conditioning system and stereo from the mustang to my benz due to familiarity (everything down to the air con knobs and stereo harness...with full harness if possible for lights as well)...I know I will need to get the fuse boxes from the mustang (the one underhood and underdash) set up in the benz, HOWEVER I plan to keep the benz fuse box temporarily to use the power windows until I make a manual crank conversion, can this be done? I will also be keeping the stock mustang fuel injection system and ecu.
the heater is not a concern as this will strictly be my summer car so im fine with ac only, also ill be using the t5 trans from my mustang so driveshaft will have to be made
regarding fuses...lets say as an example the benz requires a 20 amp fuse for headlights but im using the mustang fusebox which uses as an example a 15 amp fuse, can I go out and buy the correct amp fuse and put it in the mustang fusebox (assuming they make a fuse that will fit with correct amps) or am I better off just keeping the benz fusebox for certain things?
