C-Fizzy Posted December 21, 2009 Report Posted December 21, 2009 So i plan on completing the "Big 3" wiring upgrade, but before i started, i have a question. My "+" to alternator wire runs through a bunch of wires in the back, around the engine block, and into this big loom of wires, would it be ok to just run another power wire (without removing the stock) ? same goes for "-" to chassis, and "-" to engine block? all help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys! under construction I hate People with crappy primered cars rolling on hubcaps that are louder then me. u hate c-fizzy?
treossi Posted December 21, 2009 Report Posted December 21, 2009 yeah i just ran 3/0 wire from my alt to my battery... mine also goes through the stock factory wiring harness Team sundownWESTCOASTSPL.COM we're throwing dbdrag events very soon visit the website for details
C-Fizzy Posted December 21, 2009 Author Report Posted December 21, 2009 Well i dont plan on running the wire through the loom, just straight to the Alt. trust me, that big batch of wires would be a PAIN to run anything bigger than an 8 ga. wire through. maybe even impossible.

BulletInjection Posted December 21, 2009 Report Posted December 21, 2009 Yeah it is better to keep the factory anyway to carry a little extra current. So just alt to +bat -bat to chassis -bat to engine block My build: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...8920&st=100 http://www.youtube.com/Bulletinjection
C-Fizzy Posted December 21, 2009 Author Report Posted December 21, 2009 Great! thanks guys! now one more question, can you really tell the difference in keeping voltage steady? under construction I hate People with crappy primered cars rolling on hubcaps that are louder then me. u hate c-fizzy?
treossi Posted December 21, 2009 Report Posted December 21, 2009 yes i can mantain a higher voltage now.. didn't seem to drop as bad... but that was before i got a beast alternator installed Team sundownWESTCOASTSPL.COM we're throwing dbdrag events very soon visit the website for details
C-Fizzy Posted December 21, 2009 Author Report Posted December 21, 2009 Haha well i dont think im gonna be running enough power to need a new alt, but the wire will definatley help. under construction I hate People with crappy primered cars rolling on hubcaps that are louder then me. u hate c-fizzy?
