Questions about upgrading the "big 3"
I've been going with the following post:
http://forum.sounddomain.com/forum/u...5;t=007801;p=1
Here are my questions:
1) What size fuse should I use for the alt to batt+ wire? (I'll probably go with 0 gauge wire.)
2) If I'm not mistaken, the engine to chassis wire is at the back of the engine and attaches to the firewall? (I haven't looked yet, just going with my manual.) Based on the article above though, alternators are grounded using their case? Can I just attach the engine to chassis wire to the alt with the mounting bolts? Would certainly make my life easier.
