Big Electrical Questions


Recommended Posts

I'm planning a big build next, and although it may be a long ways away I'm trying to get my research done. The truck I'm planning on is a Chevy 2500HD. Not sure if I'll try to get one with the 6.0L Vortec or the 6.6L Duramax Diesel.

The plan for equipment will be:

2 RF T2 6.5 component sets

4 RF Pro 8 midbass

6 AA Mayhem 15s

3 RF Punch 500.2

6 RF 2500bdcp

My main questions are:

How many d3100s would be enough for the wattage? I'm figuring on 12, MAYBE 14.

How would I go about installing quad alts and regulators? I know quad alt brackets are made for both of those engines, but I can't find a good explanation anywhere. I can't find anyone using them on the diesel at all.

I know a build this big is going to be a huge task, but that's why I'm trying to get all of my research done way ahead of time. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

$200 for new tires, on a jeep!? Is she stealing them or building them with a heat gun and rubber bands?

You hear that????

I looked again and was mistaken. There is no quad alt bracket for the diesel, only h/o alts. Wishful thinking. I realize the alts are just bolt on, but I still can't really find a whole lot on regulator wiring.

There are tons of people with more experience than me in electrical especially for a setup like that.

I would say.....Start here:

Those are two things I totally missed. I was going off the amp hour rating of the batts. Thanks man!
