    31H Type 2 Wiring question

    With all the work I've done in 31H Type 2s, the same question always floated around in my head: How do they get away with that bundle of wires going right up the middle? Everything is in there - heaters, jumpers, output transformer primary. Nothing is twisted, it's all just lying straight together. How did they pull that off?

    So would/could it be improved by twisting the heater and AC wires? I'm planning a full redo of a Wurly amp as well, that amp is just a rat nest of wires. I figured if I'm replacing all the components there, I might as well redo the crap wiring too.
