I just got a 1991 Class C we will use once I get it shape. It has a Magnetek 6345, which I just finished working on. Thank goodness I remembered that good info on bestconverter and that it is still "up" on his site.
In my case, I kept the old fuse panel, jumpering the two sides, and disconnected the 6345's 120v and DC outputs, using the outputs (still on the fuse panel lugs) to go over to a deck mount PowerMax converter that I will be using as the rig's converter now. I left the 6345 remains in place and have the deck mount elsewhere.
Newsflash! You don't have to get a PD for this job. (There is a PD fan club on here :) ) Any newer type converter will do. Iota, PowerMax, even a newer Parallax. IMO a WFCO would be a poor choice though (that Ultra upgrade is a WFCO), because so many forum members are unhappy with their WFCOs.
