roscoe1129 Posted September 24, 2007 Report Posted September 24, 2007 umm yep but I wouldnt call it paralleled cause your only running one wire from each to the battery.

king-chi1 Posted September 24, 2007 Author Report Posted September 24, 2007 http://www.cardomain.com/item/KIC07FDBA ....I have this under the hood for fusing....can I just run a lead off each alternator into the fdba ???then back to the batteries??? Quote
roscoe1129 Posted September 24, 2007 Report Posted September 24, 2007 no just run one alt to the Fdba and run a wire from each alt to the battery. then from the battery to fuse, to system Quote Some people need a sympathetic pat... on the head...with my hammer Scientia est Vox "In Nomine Patris et Filii et Spiritus Sancti" DONT BE AFRAID TO USE THE SEARCH BUTTON!!!

king-chi1 Posted September 25, 2007 Author Report Posted September 25, 2007 (edited) OK....I'M NOT UNDERSTANDING....SO, let me give u a little of how it's wired right now....for the extra alt. to the FDBA to the ( batteries, from there to (2) of the streetwire CBR44 Combo Fuse Blocks then finally, the stereo Edited September 25, 2007 by king-chi1 Quote
roscoe1129 Posted September 25, 2007 Report Posted September 25, 2007 My bad I said that wrong take one wire from each of your alts to the battery then one wire from the battery to the distro block then from the fbda to your sytem.
