Anybody know how to remove the fuse block and the connections from inside the engine bay?
I have the two screws out but cannot seem to remove the fuse block

If the same as my '79 there is a bolt (5/16"?) in the center of the fuse box connector on the engine side. It is a captive bolt--just loosen. The two screws on fuse box in the cabin secure the fuse box to the firewall. You do not have to remove them to remove the engine side connection--just loosen that bolt.
