The ignition circuit does not have any fuses- apparently they would rather burn up wire than stand someone because of a blown fuse. Since you are pointing at the battery cable connection, I have seen 200 amp fuses placed in the line. The line from the battery to the ignition switch runs the coil through the resistor and isn't normally fused. The resistor is 1.66 ohms on our Mustangs. If you had a 0.6 ohm coil you could expect that combination to be less than 6 amps, so don't go less than 20a.

So here’s the gunk I pulled out of the radiator... new radiator, hoses, thermostat, etc. this COULD be oil residue, but it doesn’t smell or feel like oil. When I changed the oil today, it looked like engine oil. No cloudiness in it. I changed it hot so it was thin, but that’s it. I did have a nice film of milky tan scum on the inside of the valve covers, in the PCV Valve, in the breather, and in the dipstick tube (but not on the dipstick when checking the oil. I originally attributed that to condensation as it’s cold and wet in dads garage for some reason. Im not taking any chances... I ordered a gasket set. I’ll drop the pan as well and check that all the rods are still in place
