Damn, everything shorted out & fried? I have heard of the regulator box that mounts on the port side of the engine just melting & burning everything up before on one engine but not sure the cause.

Saw pics of one with a short in the 12V causing a fire and melting the cowling.

 Re: MY WHOLE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FRIED ON 35 GTR
Happened on my PD. Bearing in the clutch went out and a piece cut the 2 wires to the clutch which caused all of them to melt and short out. Made my own harness and no problems since.
