My buddy has a 1963 Dodge 440 with a 383/Auto/AC/PS/PB. He says the Ammeter pegs every time the headlamps are on. I assume it's normal without the headlamps on. The car has a newer alternator and voltage regulator (<500 miles on them). He has ordered another voltage regulator, but will take a few days to get here. I suggested he try swapping a "known good" battery to see if he has a dead or dying cell. He says the battery in the car is one of his "newer" batteries. I told him I'd still swap it with a "known good" battery just to rule it out. Any thoughts?
