pa-pa-platypus Posted September 5, 2014 Report Share Posted September 5, 2014 Mechman told me same thing about the 4.6 alt, my singer 350 is still going strong though....... even singer told me their has been an issue on some 4.6's with belt slip due to shitty belt wrap.. its not unheard of for it to be a problem it just doesn't always become a problem Quote This isn't teeball. YOU DO NOT GET A TROPHY JUST BECAUSE YOU SHOW UP. Put the work in and then maybe get the respect when it has been earned 151.6 with single 12 at 41 hz 153.2 with 2 12's at 43 hz power: dd m4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slinky Posted September 5, 2014 Report Share Posted September 5, 2014 (edited) my truck cruises at like 800 rpm. it barely turns the alt on. if I ever drive it again im thinking about going to a third with high idle so I can balance out Damn dude! That kinda sucks. My car has a smalllllllllll 4 banger in it so if I'm doing 60 mph down the interstate, im at 2500 rpms and if I do 70 mph then its closer to 3k rpms.

alaskanzx5 Posted September 5, 2014 Report Share Posted September 5, 2014 Mu car sots between 1500-2500 while driving (depends on where in going). The 250amp singer alt puts out at 1700-2k rpms. I don't sit at an idle full tilt. Quote t1500bdcp 2 t2d4 15" 1 t600.4 1 t400.2 1 set p1 tweets singer alt, tons of wiring, smd vm-1, 80prs, back seat delete, still in the works, aiming for a 145-147 with the ability to play 25hz up to 50hz.

Syphlyn Posted September 6, 2014 Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 I have a 2000 f150 and wanted the 270A unit from mechman. Called them and they told me that would be bad for my truck due to the limited belt wrap on the 4.6l/5.4l engines from ford at that time period. They said they've had way less issues with the 240A unit. Saved me $100 and probably a mountain of issues. lololol you serious? buddy of mine has a crown vic with the 4.6 and has a dc power 270xp on it. i never heard his belt make so much as a peep when demoing full tilt with 20k. That's what I'm told. Slipping isn't always audible just look for the black dust on the alt. You sure the crown vic and the F150 engine bay is identical? Like how the belt is set up and routed? If he has ac/doesn't have ac that could change the way it wraps around the alt too. I highly doubt the crown vic and the f150 have identical engine bays and pulley system. Regardless having the 270A for a 2000w amp is overkill anyways...

Yeah I continually run at 13.5 or so too. Last time I tried an AVBM it went up in smoke and almost took the truck with it. i'll deal with it.

moredbs Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 maybe instead of just posting, get the biggest one that will fit! we should recommend contacting the person who is going to make your alternator.then you can explain what your set up is going to be.Me personally, i wouldn't just order an alt online without research and talking to someone. even though one place tried to sell me a quad setup for running 10k. Talked to Singer afterwards,and he said ,i have 1 that will run your system no problem! never looked back! Excellent info in this thread also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
