Hi everyone, I am installing a high amp alternator on my Duster and have a question about the wires to the starter relay / starter. (the "red" ones) I am installing a high amp alternator and as such, I am running a heavy #2 gauged cable from the alternator to an appropriately sized fuse then...

This is really helpful, thank you. The vehicle you mentioned with a distribution lug. Do you have any photos you could share of your set up? Or even a schematic if you have one?

Hello, Sorry for the long read, but I am hoping to get some insight to help me out with the major electrical revision I am making to my Duster. I purchased a high amp Power Master alternator to feed the electrical needs of my car. The “Proof of Performance” slip that it came with, states it...

Thank you - This is very helpful information. What size fuse are you using for your alternator? Also what about your fusible link?

I hope this helps. Here is a photo of the old set up I had on my Duster about 15 years ago. If I remember correctly, it was a factory size small block rad. Though I do not remember the size of the fans. They did fit, but it was very tight. It is quite different now. However it still has the...

Thank you for the info! In terms of the wire going into the interior, it is a larger gauge, so I think it should be plenty..? Really taking a less is more approach.. if that makes sense.

Concerns on this wiring? I am installing a higher amp alternator to handle the accessories on my car: Dual cooling fans, electric water pump, MSD, Fitech, Snow Water meth injection etc. My ammeter is already removed and a voltmeter added in its place. Thoughts on this modification. Based off...

Yup, that is exactly what I am trying to do. What would you recommend?

Currently it is a square back, 110amp, it just isn't cutting it. I can't run the car for extended periods without discharging the batteries, driving it at night it completely out of the question too.

Lots of goodies on top of everything stock: - dual electric fuel pumps - high flow electric water pump / with controller - dual electric cooling fans - Fitech EFI - MSD ignition - snow water-meth injection system - Stereo with sub/amp... that i may or may not keep

Hope everyone is doing great. I am doing a few electrical upgrades on my car and wanted to get some suggestions... and of course do it right the first time. What is new: - 215 amp Powermaster alternator with internal regulator (8-58539) - Upgraded charge wire coming off the alternator (2 AWG)...

I have the Fitech Dual Power Adders on my Duster with a 6-71 blower, some of the best money I have spent on it. Runs amazing and easy to tune. People critique Fitech, but I think most of the problems people seem to have are user related. I followed the instructions to the letter, and got some...

Hi everyone, Hoping to get some recommendations on a good alternator for my 340 set up. I have quite the assortment of electrical components and as such need a strong alternator to boot. I have done the calculations on what I have and determined a 160 amp alternator would be sufficient, with a...

What would you recommend on top of the MAD bypass?

Again, really appreciate the information posted here. I have been looking into this further and found some pretty decent Powermaster alternators that may meet my cars needs. I am seeing that most of the higher amperage ones are internally regulated, and from what I understand are the single...
