moh.vze.com Posted May 12, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2019 Just an update. I was about to go install the new alternator but I'm not sure exactly if it's going to work. The casing option mounting locations look different than my old alternator. Any ideas?

Jessica Posted May 12, 2019 Report Share Posted May 12, 2019 i was wondering how you got an alt so big for that. my 03 corolla can only can fit an 140amp. maybe make a braket? edit: on second look, it looks like it will fit with different bolts Rest in peace, walled 87 accord build log 03' Corolla build with AA Mayhem inside.

moh.vze.com Posted May 12, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2019 Meh. Just an update. I contacted Mike and it turns out the new one he built for me is for the 2.2 motor and not for my 3.0 engine. He's going to build me the 320A one this weekend. Dang. I knew it was too good to be true to get a super high output alternator. So much for my big sound system upgrade this summer. The damn Camry has no space for dual alternators.

moh.vze.com Posted May 22, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2019 Installed the 320A+ Singer Alt. Two positive runs from alt pos to battery and 1 negative run from alt frame to battery negative. Need to recalibrate my Stinger meter. It reads 14.1V when my dmm actually reads like 14.8V DC Audio - Singer Alternators - Knukonceptz - XS Power - Hybrid Audio - Rockford Fosgate - Second Skin Audio - SMD - Sundown Audio - Elemental Designs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiBo Posted May 22, 2019 Report Share Posted May 22, 2019 You might've actually done better with the 320. Everybody I know that runs those gigantic alternators have heating issues. My singer is a 320a (128mm casing) and I might be going to a 270a( 138mm casing) to avoid overheating issues when I put my LTO in. I'll be running 3-5 40ah banks on a single alt. Jonathan Patrick told me all I need is 120ah to clamp 15k or less. We shall see. I have 200ah. Gonna be hard to not throw it all in lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully this thing doesnt get fried and last me atleast 5 years like the last singer alt I had.

Hopefully this thing doesnt get fried and last me atleast 5 years like the last singer alt I had. I'd imagine a double alt terminal would get hot. IIRC mechman told me those weren't the best idea. Everybody uses them so I don't see anything wrong with it but they did tell me they cause excessive heat. They told me to use a single 1/0 ga for a 370 and under because that sz wire is rated for the alternator output. I'm just regurgitating what I was told.

melvinhob Posted May 22, 2019 Report Share Posted May 22, 2019 I am surprised you were able to get a alternator that big for that camry. I have a 270a from DC power on my 1994 camry with a 2.2 liter engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's cause DC doesn't like to billet cases That aren't in high demand like Tahoes,Silverado,suburban etc cases....Singer and CES will....biggest DC offered was a 270 but got them to do a 320 slotwound for me back in 2011 by removing the rear mount....
