Re: Distro block, maxi fuse box, and ground stem
I have a slightly different question.

Is the distro block required? Or can we use a slightly different (capable of handling larger wire) distro block instead? It isn't really clear in the rules wether this is illegal or not. (thinking logically, it would be fine as the block we are using has a plastic cover, is larger, and we are running 8 guage wire through it instead of 10)

BUT, we could be totally off base and be required to use the distro block we got in the kit.

Any ideas?
