I am wiring a homebuilt now and I am having challenge in coming up

safe way of wiring the engine.  The engine requires four very
uninterruptible 12V wires.  They are as follows: 1.  EC2 computer,
2.
Igniters, 3.  Injectors,  4.  2 Fuel pumps.


My 2 cents worth.  I have heard of lyc. installations having belts to break
and the pieces of belt flying around cut the alternator wiring.  I plan to
run the wires from firewall to engine in 4130 steel tubing to protect from
this possibility.  Of course inspecting and replacing belts is also
mandatory.
