I don't care if the question has been asked 1000 times there is always something to learn. That's what this place is all about learning and understanding how it works. I also agree with Don don't remember doing it the way he wants to do it.

Bulkhead connection found bad connections on the engine side. Have cleaned and made sure making contact. Problem gone but always make sure grounds are grounded no paint grease etc. I have had coil get hot and zero start when cooled down it would fire up so check temp of coil after it's been...

Do yourself a favor and breakdown each section and easier to troubleshoot. Amp rate with battery. What is the Amp draw with the fans?. Start with fans maybe full pull on amps but should drop after that as stated above. Small things first and go from there.

Okay you put on a 130 Amp but didn't up the wiring size big problem. Second are the fans on all the time or ran by temp sensor?. Have you had the new alt checked out to make sure it's okay. Or you could take all that off and go back to factory stuff. Have you full fielded the 130 Amp to make...

What size pulley on the alt. Can replace with larger and slow it down. Just a thought

Tell more I'm all ears. Why would the box not be included.

Replace with same if you can.

Go over to the electrical thread. Lots of advice

Are you using fuses or circuit breakers.

Nice work very clean.

Well went from asking about a alt switch to tic for tac and loosing at the track. Wonderful info thank you all for the different inputs. I won't be sending any updates on if it worked or not because to be truthful it really doesn't matter.

As for hp every little bit helps. As my 64 dodge has been on a diet for a couple years. I was reading some old hot rod mags and one of the articles was about shutting down the alt so I thought I would just ask about the idea.

Mr.mod please pull or delete this post thank you.

Thank you for the inputs

Want to turn off alt when making a pass at the track. Installing a toggle switch on the field wire will just turn off the alt correct or some other idea.

Welcome to the school of hard knocks we all have been there. But this will always be with and when you get my age you'll look back at and laugh telling your buddies all about it. Now for the learning listen and guys on here will help you out. Pics would be great of what you have so we can help.

Safety at any point is most important. Fuses, circuit breakers and relays help to protect from fire. The biggest thing I do is up the size on the wire. Example if the wire is a 12 gage I'll up it to carry the load easily. Everyone ups the Amp load at the alt but nothing to carry the new load...

It can be done get a manual of the Canadian polora. Then match up yours to it and go for it. You might be able to get someone on here that has a copy or make a copy from their book. I would also like to do that swap as soon as I can find the dash. Good luck

If you have brittle wiring and old alt is working the problem could be the wiring. Unless i read the thread wrong which for myself i do that.

Back in the day when security alarms came out alot of folks use to just put a light in the car. Used it to fool would be thieves. My guess
