No Power, no lights, fusable link??
Hello, I've been working on my 77 Highboy for a few weeks, putting in a new cam, lifters and a different set of heads in the 460.
I'm almost ready to fire it up and break my cam in but now I don't have any power at all. I've replaced the one fusable link near the starter relay before. It checks good for continuity and isn't hot on either side coming into it.
The battery is hot. I've jumped from the hot post on the battery to the "s" on the starter relay and it does click the starter.
I feel like my grounds are good and I do have a lot of them with 1 gauge cable from the frame to motor, cab to motor, etc... I've also hooked a jumper cable from the negative post of the battery to the engine just to see if I had a ground problem. Still no luck.
Do you all think I have fusable link blown? If so where is it located? Any other thoughts or suggetions, please help. Thanks in advance!!

Thought I would update. I found my problem. It was the 16 gauge fuseable link that was bolted right to the starter solenoid. It was kind of hid and took me a while to find it.
A big hello to all and "Happy Highboy". He He.
