I\'m going out on a limb here, but I\'m thinking the phrases \"wiring harness w/fuse box\" and \"budget\" don\'t belong together! http://www.s10v8.com/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif I\'ve been told that all the aftermarket harnesses are quite pricey.

.......... The sell fuse blocks reasonably in the catalogs, just need to buy some wire, and go for it. Just come up with a plan first.

Painless Wiring is by far the best for what you want to do. Request a catalog.They have all types of kits depending on what you want to do. I used the four switch panel mounted in the upper cage tube. The battery switch in the rear of the truck powers up the panel and the original fuse box. Ignition, fuel pump, fans, and start are done from the panel while the key still turns on the lights, etc. Be prepared though, the prices are painFUL. LOL

I bought a painless wiring harness for a 63 nova I had top notch quality,easy install for $269.00 In the Jegs catalog,can get 12 circut blocks for $90. If money is tight and you have time why not use your existing fuse block just remove it relocate inward fill in hole w/sheetmetal drill holes for grommets or go through cab to frame and run in rubber tubing ect. to protect do same on other side by running wires inside cab alt.,solenoid,ect. it would be a pain but if ya got the time it would be cheap to do.Build a nice aluminum cover for wire junction and run the wire loom covers another cheap easy thing you could do Hope this could help somehow maybe give you some other idea at least have a good one

I used the 12 circuit pro street wiring harness from Painless with the 8 switch panel. It\'s pretty basic to install and you can get it all for about 350
