a few questions for the build
 
#1 how many wires should i have coming off of my positive battery terminal, i have a few that im not sure do anything, i have no power options or ac so i think it should just be the starter cable.

#2 Should there be a bow in the front of the box? im thinking no but i seem to have one.

#3 where would one buy door sill plates, i could try to make them but i want something that looks half decent.

#4 could a water pump leak even though the truck hasnt been running? it has been sitting for a couple weeks now and there is a puddle of coolant.

#5 how much play in the turbo is acceptable, im not sure if its my fat fingers moving or the shaft, hopefully its the fingers.



thanks in advance, any input is appreciated.

Door sill plates i would try ebay, or jc whittney. I do believe the water pump could leak out the weep hole. But i could be wrong.
Idk the spec on acceptible play. The rule of thumb i go by is "if the wheel isn't rubbing the housing all is well" lol But i may just be a dumb redneck.

#1. One wire is for the hazard lights/4 way flashers.
