With some of the long wire runs we are seeing this year, you may also want to watch out for the weight of your wiring. We have been through multiple cycles of weight reduction and I have concluded that we could have laid out our electronics better and dropped some excess weight. I used a kitchen scale and found that 18 feet of 12AWG wire weighed 0.494 pounds. That was about how much wire we would have needed to add a pair of motors up front for an active intake mechanism.
