Alternator wiring mod, my way
So I finally got around to doing the alternator wiring mod on my blue car, but I have a real difficult time keeping things simple and straightforward. So somehow, the battery ended up in the trunk.
Megafuse holder and fuse from amazon.com 1/0 gauge wire from knukonceptz (the CCA, not full copper) (I ordered 25 feet, but used less than 20. Not sure exactly how much though, I forgot to measure it.) 6 1/0 gauge ring terminals, also from knukonceptz a bunch more of the 4 gauge ring terminals Some 4 gauge wire that was laying around Some fresh battery terminals from advance Lots of electrical tape If I were to do this again, I would use 2 gauge full copper instead, since the wire would be a lot easier to work with and the 2 gauge from Knukonceptz is bigger than most 2 gauge. 1/0 gauge is huge, plus it weighs less. 1/0 is the way to go to play it safe though. Pictures will explain better than words ever could: There are more pics here.
