My MS-distro project

Post by **joerg** » Sat Aug 15, 2009 3:34 am

As all that goes into my car is from the MS-chapter from phoenix gold i deecided to convert my power distros into one big MS-distro center!

So far i just took an old MS2250 heatsink which i have to cut into the right size and just placed the distros inside just to get an idea how it would look like!

One can NEVER have too many spare sinks!

will you be spreading the blocks to either edge so you can run wiring down the middle... just trying to picture how that will play out. looks like way it is now that it will be difficult to get 0-ga up/down through to some of the inputs.
but so far looks cool... neat idea... and anxious to see the end result.

Hehe.. I have been thinking about the same, but I never came to a point where I managed to put all my distro-blocks into some empty sinks, to check how it looks like. All my distros are still BNIB, and I do not dare to take them out of original wrapping yet...

are you going to display it like that, or flip it rights side up?

is there enough clearance for the cable?

That looks cute, but it is a waste of a very rare heatsink if you ask me.

This is the heatsink from jomas MS2250 i bought a while ago! He sandblasted and repainted it with regular black paint. So it´s pretty much worthless anyways and i decided to take it for my project.

It will get two endplates with a power connector in it for ground and 12V input cables. Further i will drill holes where the transsistors used to be and the wires will leave the distro center thru them.
