Replace Fuse Block

I need to replace the fuse block on my '75, it is badly corroded. I am looking at this one as it supports 2 lines in, for my needs one switched, the other not. Thoughts?

no experience with that specific brand, but I would be more inclined to find an OEM fuse block from a salvage yard which "should" have higher quality base material and more importantly "should" have higher quality plating on the electrical components...this opinion is solely based on general experiences with cheaper products like this.

When i wired Buford, I went with Centech Wiring for not only my loom needs, but also the fuse blocks they offered. Their site has a number of fuse blocks available, and while it's only my opinion, I think they're going to be a bit higher quality than what you showed. I think the larger fuse block they have has both switched and un-switched, but also sockets for the horn relay, as well as the turn and hazard relays. I think they're around $130, which isn't terrible. The blocks also come with a stainless cover for cleaner installations, and ease of access to the fuses. If you Google Centech Wiring, you'll find them.

If you decide to wire the whole vehicle, they will also have a discussion with you and set up your entire wiring harness for the features your particular vehicle has. They also use Ford connectors, which is a nice feature. Their wires are good quality, and they all come pre-labeled for clarity.

Just an option for ya.

I used Blue Sea brand (standard on lots of boats) a couple of times. Good quality and price. Lots of options on their website.

I have almost the exact setup now now for 10 years with no issue. I actually created some fused circuits that didn’t exist when wired it in.
