Quick Engine Shot

[JJRJR]

Spoke to Gary. He got the wiper motor to work on all speeds and park. Bird decal installed on dash. A little snafu during a burnout: the u-joint strap snapped so we replaced with OEM but just got a Moroso heavy duty strap and it arrived today so that goes in tomorrow. A few more tidy up items and we're done. It's been a long 13 months. I pick her up on Saturday cause I'm having a Halloween Party and want to show her off, but she'll be back to Gary to finish up afterwards.

Almost home.

Very nice and clean, notice you have two electric cooling fans installed. How are they working for you? Where did you get the black alternator?

 

[challengergary]

The fans work great. I was stuck in stop and crawl traffic the other day when it was 85 degrees outside and the temperature gauge never went over 195. The black alternator came from Summit IIRC. Not too happy with it though, we had it tested and it's not putting out enough juice especially under a load. Never makes more than 13.4 volts and drops down below 12 volts under a load. Might need to return it.

Had same problem.
Dumped stock alt. and placed 1 wire alt.
170amp. 2 fans and shitload of electric stuff.
Always enough juice in battery.

How many amps is it putting out.

did you install relays for your fans.....hot wire comes right off your altenator and your switch just turns it on......this way you have direct 14 volts to them

Thanks George, that's a Gary question. I know he ran fans into ignition so fans don't run forever after we shut her down.

look thru this also.....shows how to wire in relays for headlites to......well worth it....no more dim headlites
