The denso reacts much better at idle...mine at idle with two fans and electric water pump reads about 12 volts at 900 rpm...here's my amp drawsMore than likely o1heavy that will be the case. One thing that I don't understand is if I remember correctly my stock mopar alt is a 75 amp. So how does the 60 amp Denso work better than a 75 amp... the sense wire?
Also I have March pulleys and I'm not sure how easy it will be press my pulley off the stock mopar and then install it on the Denso. I had to use Locktite press fit compound when I pressed the pully on. It is a long story but that's where I'm at on that. lol That's another thing against me is the March pulleys but I want serpentine belt system.
Update: yeah I think Im screwed having the March pulleys and expecting the pulley to fit the Denso alt.
Okay here we go with the amp readings...zero it out then 1 mv equals 1 amp
Amp tested HHR fan first....zeroed out...
HHr fan....sixty bucks 2700 cfm and 14.1 amps
Mezziere 35 gpm electric water pump they say 6 to 7 amps..I got 8.3 amps..may be because it was dead heading against the thermostat...
my little permacool fan on my tranny cooler...1.7 amps
so I have the 78 big alternator now and it does not do the job at idle...two or three trips to the weekend meet and I had a dead battery...I am going to bypass the amp meter and a run an 8 guage wire straight to the battery with a fuse of course..HHr fan....sixty bucks 2700 cfm and 14.1 amps
