Bronze Member Username: Velk4425Post Number: 48 Registered: Feb-05 | Greetings, I've done some research on upgrading wiring with a HO Alternator. I have a Ford Mustang, and got a 200 amp alternator. For rewiring, this is what I found needs upgrading with 0 gauge: 1. Engine to Chassis Ground 2. Alternator to positive battery terminal 3. Battery negative post to chassis ground Now, I read on an alternator parts website that you should run a ground wire directly from the alternator to the battery. http://www.alternatorparts.com/FAQ.htm#bat%20wire Let me know what you guys think I need do to. Thanks, Eric |
