MECHMAN Posted August 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2012 All the Mechman guys are very helpful. Is the 370a $100 more than the 340a alts you have out now? Interested!

AMI CUSTOMS Posted August 10, 2012 Report Share Posted August 10, 2012 what changes were made from the 340? How do the 340a phase 6's compare to the 370a SMD's besides the obvious 30a gain? Beefier components? More power at idle? Idle output is very impressive on the 370s. We were able to produce a whopping 200amps at only 500 RPM!!! Most of our ratings show amperage at 800RPM...so you can expect to have more, exponentially, as you increase RPMs. The 340s are solid alternators, but we also found the need for more cruising power for our clients and thus, by altering the internal connections we were able to tweak the product to produce even more POWER!!! ~Michael P.S. These alternators are not readily available yet, to answer the question raised earlier, but are available for sale. email me for more details about this latest and greatest alt from Mechman! [email protected] That was from my thread of my 340s, someone asked same question.

AMI CUSTOMS Posted August 10, 2012 Report Share Posted August 10, 2012 Here is a question, just for shits and gigs lol, what would it take to convert my 340s to 370s? 1 Quote TEAM SOUNDQUBED -- TEAM SOUTH TEAM S.O.B. - Founder & Captain 3x Streetbeat World Record Holder 2017 MWSPL 1st place Mayhem & 4th Xtreme 4 2016 MWSPL 1st place Mayhem/2nd Adv 4/2nd Xtreme 4 2015 MWSPL 2nd place Mayhem & 4th Xtreme 4 2014 USACI 2nd place Streetbeat 5 - 162.6 db 2014 MWSPL 2nd place Xtreme 4 - 144.9 db 2013 USACI 1st place Streetbeat 4 - 161.9 db 2013 USACI 1st place Street Q+ - 162.8 db 2013 MWSPL 3rd Kaos2 & 4th Xtreme 4 2011 USACI 2nd place MOD 1001-2k - 160.0 db 2011 MWSPL 4th place: Adv3 - 157.8 db, Kaos2 - 150s db, Xtreme4 - 140s db 2010 ARSPL 1st place 501-750 - 160.3 db Arkansas loudest Best score to date 164.4 db - Termlab Outlaw Streetbeat 4 - 161.9 db Streetbeat 5 - 162.6 db MWSPL on Dash Legal door open (Music) - 162.5 db Sealed on dash Legal (Music) - 161.1 db - Termlab THE BLACK NASTY CURRENT BUILD & FAB The Black Nasty (6) 15 Rebuild Log 2012 (4) 15 Walled Sierra Build Log Evo X build log Facebook page The Black Nasty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crunkjuice1 Posted August 10, 2012 Report Share Posted August 10, 2012 (edited) Maybe a new thread should be made to help everyone understand all the bells and whistles separating the new from the old. There's a youtube video showing the difference between iceman's white SMD alts compared to the older ones but I think that these are a bit more updated than those? here is the link to Iceman's alts Mechman alts have been aiming at beefing up the low idle output that we all like for some time now there are even youtube videos of Eric showing off certain units hitting 200rpm at idle I think even on his ford car but not under the SMD tag. They are very strong alts period but my honest opinion is people want to know exactly what they are paying for. We know you guys are busy but thats what it seems the masses is focused on. Thanks for understanding. Edited August 10, 2012 by crunkjuice1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMI CUSTOMS Posted August 10, 2012 Report Share Posted August 10, 2012 From what I have gathered, there has been 3 versions of the SMD alts, what is on Steves tahoe(350a), the ones on my truck(340a), then these(370a). And Steves were from last year use vehicle harness internal reg, mine were beginning this year no harness external reg, new model just released same as mine just more output idle and peak.

crunkjuice1 Posted August 10, 2012 Report Share Posted August 10, 2012 I am throwing a swing in the dark but I THINK it might be the stator amongst other things that allow for this increase across the RPM range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassface Posted August 10, 2012 Report Share Posted August 10, 2012 When they are producing so much amperage at such a low rpm, do they wear out faster? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMI CUSTOMS Posted August 10, 2012 Report Share Posted August 10, 2012 I can tell you this comparing my 340s along side my 250s that I had, night and day difference among the too when you can see them up close, there is a ton more copper in the 340 and bearing are heavier and bridge rectifier is massive. Not to mention the weight difference, 340s have considerable more weight to them.
