David,
Regarding your plan below to add some fuses...a great idea. You might want to
consider circuit breakers for the lights. Try Radio Shack or a good NAPA
store. The amp rating really is a function of the wattage bulbs you use.
Divide the wattage by 12 volts to get an idea of the current each light pulls.
20-30 amp circuits are fairly common for lighting.

Since you switched to a GM alt, did you up-grade the wiring from the alt?? It
might be a good idea if you start adding some serious electron eaters. The GM
alt has at least double the current output capacity of that fine Lucas
generator.
What did you do for pulleys when you switched the the GM unit??
