is it ok to run a yellow top on a stock alt?


Recommended Posts

Title says it all. The alt is a 100 amp if that helps.

I wouldn't say no need. Doing your grounds in 1/0 would help but the power would be a waste.

you just agreed with me? He does NOT need the "big 3"

upgrading grounds can help a little bit but that would only be a "big 1" or "big 2" :good:

You dont need a bigger alternator unless the power draw of your system exceeds your alts ability to charge. The battery doesnt draw any extra power or require anything extra to be charged except if it is let almost die in which case you would fatigue your alt.

You dont need the Big 3. But you should
