  1. I had a similar problem; it was a bad ground
  2. Thanks guys. I'll give them a palmetto a shot, no pun intended. I have the ballistic tip hornady now but after doing some reading about the penetration depth I'm considering switching to fmj's. Now it's time to start dreaming of a 7.62
  3. Ford motorcraft I think.
  4. 1/0 from alt post to battery; voltage back to normal. There has to be a fuse that is messing up the voltage somewhere on that line. Should I fuse that 1/0 (alt to batt) with a 300 to be on the safe side. And should I add a second 1/0 since the factory wiring is messed up?
  5. The battery was purchased 8/10. It will crank by key, but thru my viper it will crank then shut off within one minute, then recrank, shut off, recrank.... Even with a charged d3100 on jumpers the charging light illuminates on the dash and voltage at the terminals is sub 12.x
  6. Had the battery load tested today, and it tested good. So I'm lost. I put the stock battery in the car, hooked up a d3100 that I have in my garage with a set of jumper cables and it's the same thing. Resting voltage at the battery terminals is around 11.x, but the voltage at the alt terminal is 14.x. Please help me, I have a loaner car now but need to return it by the end of next week and I'm getting nervous
  7. Charged battery for 24 hours. Took it off the charger around 14.3 and it dropped to 13.4ish. Stuck it in the car and cranked the engine and it dropped to 12.1 and stayed in that area. I am going to run by discount auto tomorrow to pick up a clay bar kit and jumper cables. I'll try to disconnect the battery and use jumpers to use one of my xs d3100s. I am still worried that my alt isnt working correctly. But that is for another day I guess.
  8. Checked the charger this morning before work it was reading 13.4 volts. I'll continue to let it charge until tonight. If it was the battery and not the alt; why wouldn't the battery start to charge with the car running? It just drops volts at a steady pace. Sent a message to mech for a price for a xs for under the hood
  9. So tinkering around a little today I found the post from alt to battery. Grounded my dmm to battery, positive at the alt post and it appears I'm getting normal voltage. Turned the car off; dmm on both posts on the battery; 11.7 Car on at the battery post yields about the same voltage. I don't know a ton about batteries and alts, but I guess I'm going to pull the battery out, put it on the charger. If the battery doesn't come up above 12.x, I guess the battery is bad. Is this correct reasoning?
  10. I agree to the terms! 2008 Ford Fusion El1T3bass has an awesome quote about audio being a brotherhood Edit 95legwagon has a cool avatar
  11. Want to do another?
  12. Looking for a three chamber 4th order. Sealed chambers on the outside, ported in the middle.
  13. Will send them pm's thanks. Maybe I'll just do it myself. I have bass box pro, autocad, and a calculator.
  14. I know ram has been active here since the last time I had contact with him. I have seen his designs for a long time and they look sick. I would like to see a little communication, even if it is " hey Im slammed I got your info, just give me some time." I will still be happy to wait I still don't know if he got the measurements I sent him, don't know if he got my order, don't know...
  15. 4 weeks and counting
  16. First I sent him a pm asking about price and if he could do it, he got me a rough price but told me to go to his website to submit the order. I asked if he could design me a 4th order and that I could give him detailed measurements. I placed the order with his site and sent him all the pictures. About a week passes with no response, so I email him, another week goes by, send him a pm. Another week goes by nothing. Maybe he Is swamped. I don't know because he will not respond. Even I some on my emails I was just looking for a confirmation them
  17. Well I submitted an order to ram about a month ago, it started good. We talked about box designs, I went out to measure, took some pictures, left him several messages, several pm's and he hasn't responded at all since before thanksgiving. So I gotta start looking for someone else. I'm fine with waiting as long has there is some communication. I'll try to get ray.
  18. I remember seeing a thread about box design advertising a little bit ago. Are there any smd approved box designers here?
