Have a mechman alternator and voltage still drops bad


Recommended Posts

You're gonna be pulling 280 amps+ running that power, not including your cars needs. You need more battery reserve.

i shook this one kids hand and it just folded in mine. long story short i fucked his girlfriendso.. yeah..

You want this to happen to you? Give decent handshakes people.

This is from mechman (i selected 04ish tahoe) 270 amp alt so prob what you have. . .

Product Description

The Extreme Service high output alternator by MechMan offers outstanding low and midrange output with excellent durability for daily driven and industrial vehicles. With a standard 7" crank pulley, it produces 165 amps by 700 rpm and achieves full output by 1700 rpm. This unit features:

so at 700 which is give or take idle your only getting about 165. . . your car with no bass uses a good chunk of thatso like everyone else said rev er up a bit. . .and acc to mechman 1700 is about full amps (:

Singer 350A puts out 200A at idle....just sayin. You have enough alt and battery to not have a huge drop right away What does your BIg 3 look like? Do you have any pics of under the hood just to make sure everything looks in order?

Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you.
