2 Field Alternator Question
This is the modification I did to my '69 Dart. I was getting flickering on the lights and varying voltage. This cued my problem and allowed me to run a adjustable regulator (I set it to 14.5 volts while driving). I also added a 10 gauge wire from the relay battery stud to the alternator battery stud. This takes most of the load off of the bulkhead connectors battery terminal and also the alternator gauge. Doing this however will keep your alternator gauge from reading correctly so you'll have to put in a voltage gauge to monitor charging. I actually put all of the wires on the back of the alternator gauge on one stud so mine doesn't read anything.
