Alright,
My stock under dash fuse panel is cracked, which leads to some interesting electrical issues... The wiring is chopped, corroded, and it's a mess, so I'm going to start over with it...
Just wanting some opinions on the following from those of you that may have already been through this:
1st - How many circuits would you recommend? 12, 18, 21, 22?
The standard box has 18, initially car is street strip but due to an upcoming move may make it more a corner carver as opposed to 1/4 mile as the previous owner built it. Knowing this considering going with a 21 circuit setup to leave room for growth... I have considered 12 circuit setups.
2nd - What Brand would you go with?
Of course Painless just off name recognition - will be custom done by me, but will more than likely get the pre-wired and labelled.
Any feedback on Classic-Technologies brand? http://www.classic-technologies.com/
Feedback on EZ Wiring brand? https://www.ezwiring.com/
What about the usual suspects on Amazon and Ebay?

Have also considered just building a panel like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BvFHA1xY10w this would be cheaper, and would mount on the front side of the rear seat delete that I'm building more than likely, I have the experience and am an Engineer by trade...
Wanting this to be a 1 and done - will pay for the good shielding on the wires, will soider, weatherproof crimp, and protect everything. Will probably run some additional distribution blocks, the one thing I like about the 21/22 circuits is they have relay for Fuel pump already, and mine is currently hacked in...
Let me know your thoughts, and experiences. I will be doing everything on the car, and while I'll get some passes in this fall/Winter down here in Florida, next summer will do this, however I will be doing this before I put nitrous, or anything else that needs better wiring... I guess I'm saying there is a very good chance I may be doing this BEFORE I head back to the track this fall... Redoing the entire fuel system, battle boxes, rear diff, brakes, and alot of other stuff currently, so may just tear into it at this time as well...
Let me know your opinions please!
