Ok as requested here is a vid of the quads in motion

tonite of course the cleaner version will be in my Video section....U tube has to do since i dont know how to work my own site LOL

Finally got the idler "bearings" that i was waiting for....my setup worked good but this one works MUCH better.....thanks Dom!!

usually starts off 15.1 - 15.2 in the morning (first start) but after a few minutes of driving it levels off at 14.5 - 14.6 which is perfect.

oh also, i think i may need to revise my (3 350, 1 240) claim on the title of this thread. Dom says they are more like 375-390 amps each. The 240 is probably doing 260...

ill find out hopefully what they are exactly. I know he tests them before they go out and has some record of it somewhere....

i thought the biggest dom mad was 300?

Damn steve, if the power ever goes out at your house I think you got a back-up plan LOL

dom can do a few "special things" and get more out of his 300's.....but he HIGHLY doesnt recommend that if you have 1 or even 2 of these alts. You will be crying like a baby the first time you put two 380 amp alts in your ride and your at the stoplight doing 12.8v because its barely charging. The AT-IDLE of a 300 or bigger is TERRIBLE.....and it gets worse the bigger you go. That is why i have the "smaller" alt in the mix to help out when sitting still. Oh dont trip, at 1k and up its like heaven but my truck idles at 500-600 or something like that so i actually have to be moving to get full power or at least revving the motor some....

I BEGGED dom to make me dual 400 amp alts for the longest time and with money in hand he didnt want to do it just for that reason. With 4 alts, 1 of them helping with the idle, its not so bad.....

anyway talk to him about it.....he will break it all down for you

[Slinky]

that is a hell of a lot of power

[FieroGrande]

Nice and high voltage ftw!

[dmanson]

that's the reason why i'm going with the 220 over the 240 amp alternator ....... because Dom said it would put out more at idle and i'm a parking lot boomer. i just need to find an expedition with a dual setup cause i know it can be done on an expedition. although it's slightly off topic, help a brotha out meade.
