So I was thinking that I could turn Brunnhilde into a rap star status
symbol if I made some emblems that say "BUNTZ14" like those I see on the
Eckscalades and Chrysler 300s that say "DUBZ22"
I have my CNC machine about ready to go, I could do something in aluminum.
Whatcha y'all think?

That link is quite accurate.
With one exception, the ultimate test is using a current meter.
They should draw about 20 amps initially.

Buy a much newer one in nice shape and spend the $20,000 you save doing so
on gas. :-)

I second that. Is it a 617, which supposedly won't fit under the
hood unless you drop the mounts (and endange the oil pan), or is
it a 603/606? I suspect it's a 617, they are a lot more co
I'll second the 30-0-30 ammeter. If the current use doesn't drop to around
10-15 after a few seconds, it's a bad plug. That's all I use.

Yes, they came with 6" wheels. Yours probably had hubcaps originally and a
previous owner bought some used wheels. The 6.5 will work just fine, they
just didn't come with them.

Glad that the "wench" arrived OK, hope it's useful. I was
