A place where restoration project-type threads can go to avoid falling off the main page in the WIX hangar. Feel free to start threads on Restoration projects and/or warbird maintenance here. Named in memoriam for Gary Austin, a good friend of the site and known as RetroAviation here. He will be sorely missed.

We need help locating a harness that connects the booster coil to the A bank mag on the Merlin in out P51-H project. We either need a harness or a photo of one so that we can build one. This is a static display only so it dosen't need to work, but ours is missing and we don't know what it looks like.
Thanks,

D model has a small box on the L/H cowl former aft of the exhaust stacks. I believe the original had metal braid conduit with the wires inside.
I have seen various photos of H FWF without cowling. Look for wiring going to the magneto and follow it to a small metal box.
