I read that circuit breakers trip too fast ~ not good to use them in place of fusible links ~ read the below Google result about fuses:

"It is difficult to replace fusible links with fuses. Fusible links are compact and handle a lot of current before they blow. To replace the fusible links with fuses you will have to use mega fuses, the smallest will most likely be about 50 amps. And this will take up a lot of room, and be more connections to go bad."

I bought a couple fusible links (wire type) from O'Reilly's one was for Ford the other for GM ~ they were very close to the rating for my Gen1 truck ~ have not installed them yet
