well in the rain with no hood and roof I took out my newly installed 340, in my 68 barracuda..(i couldnt help myself)
IT WAS FANTASTIC, as it was the first time i have driven a 340... But the shitty started right before I pulled in my garage....i was concerned about this and clearly for a good reason as it turned into a problem..
the car made a noise and died out...white smoke came out of the hood...i have a brand new year one wiring harness and the main red power wire line that goes into the firewall's fuse BLEW....
The reason I was concerned about this was that a local alternator shop re-did my alternator to 70-75 amps.....
what, from all your guys experience is the best way to solve this issue so I can run the car with no problems?
I would like to keep the factory amp meter, but if it has to go, it has to go...would replacing the line fuse with a larger line fuse take care of the problem???
Thanks again
