This is VERY true. I know he said it wouldn't be a problem
I just want to be somewhat educated and do some research so that I can have an informed discussion :D
Yup. Nick is doing it.
I'm here looking for information so I can do some reading and learning about what sorts of things will get me the numbers I want. I know Nick is a wealth of knowledge and just want to have an informed discussion.
Thank you for your thoughts.
For the build I am going to be using Indy Auto in Laval Quebec. The engine will be on a dyno. I currently have headers on my '69 and do like the sound. I would like to keep a lot of the stock MOPAR parts as long as they can be used and will get me in to the...
I was hoping for some assistance from the group. I have a '72 RR/GTX with non-numbers matching 440 engine. I would like to have the engine rebuilt next fall/winter and am starting the data collecting process of what I would like to do. All of this is very new to me so any help is appreciated. I...
For whatever reason it all works now. I did nothing. Staying on the C side of the equation all the time.
Thanks for everyone's help.
Now on to the idle stall issue when hot.
Success!!!
New round back alternator and voltage regulator.
New question. Ammeter doesn't read "charge". But it doesn't move down now. How do I go about problem solving this to have it show D/C more accurately.
Pic running and second with all lights on including interior and high.
Thanks Bob.
I have one of these. I will go ahead and replace the existing unit in case some how it was damaged.

I really appreciate...
THANKS!!
So I am going to try a wire from empty field tab to the green side in the voltage regulator. This is correct?
Second option would be to see about getting a round back single field alternator and substitute it.
Let me know if I am understanding correctly.
Thank you for your help. Yes I do have a copy of the shop manual. I was able to find online.
Here are a few pictures of the wiring. The current alternator looks to be a SQUARE BACK. The car came with a spare as well. Both pictured.
Please let me know what else is needed for pictures to be...
Looking for more help.
I am still having failure on the charging side of the equation. I have checked and replaced the voltage regulator, alternator, ballast resistor. I fixed the ignition switch issue.
I'm left looking for wiring issues? Could my fusible link be fried? It looks normal so I am...
I found another older thread suggesting I could run a second line from the second FLD tab to the IGNITION side of the voltage regulator. This did not work. The wire overheated and started to smell...back to the drawing board. Still thinking single FLD alternator
