I assume the charging system would be 10 gauge and 12 gauge and the lights horn ignition would be 12 to 14 gauge

would that be correct

Per RG's...

"All lamp wiring harnesses used 16-gauge wire" (Except Early 1928 vehicles...Read the RG's);

"The wires from the terminal box to the generator cutout and to the battery connection on the starter switch were larger 12-gauge wire".

"The wire from the ignition switch to the coil (red wire) was 16-gauge until October 1928 when it was changed 12-gauge. The black wire from the coil to the terminal box was 16-gauge throughout production".
