TRON Posted June 30, 2014 Report Share Posted June 30, 2014 What about a heat shield? Just something to block a little bit of the heat off the engine might work, it wouldn't keep it cool but it might keep it a few degrees lower. Kind of like a turbo shield. Shouldn't be too hard to kind some kind of flexible heat shielding material that to make something that fits.

evermaxx Posted June 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2014 Just asking because he said it was from heat, or over working it for lack of batteries. I'll see when I get it back. I mean it was acting up before I even had a load on it. Just thought I'd ask what everyone does or if anyone had any thoughts. Thanks guys. Shipped it today, should be back Friday.

SnowDrifter Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 I wired the relays of my radiator fans to a switch. Can flip them on full blast manually and blows gobs of cool air over the alt. It still gets warm, but nothing that will make you go "ouch crap" if you touch it ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jakmagic Posted July 7, 2014 Report Share Posted July 7, 2014 Could a guy maybe take a little electric fan, (like kind used for cooling amps in amp racks), and mount that by the alternator sucking the hot air away?
