Im making a wiring harness. I have a diagram that tell me everything suck as wire color and size. The only thing it doesnt tell me is what amp fuses to use in the fuse box. Is there a formula or some other way to figure this out.

You can measure current draw fairly easily too, but you'll need a decent multimeter with an internal current shunt capable of measuring the current that you need (all of the current travels through the multimeter), or you'll need a current probe that is capable of measuring at DC instead of just AC.
It's actually a very easy process, you just have to follow a few simple rules of common sense.
