alternator upgrade questions?
Hey guys i was wondering if someone could explain to me the process in detail of how to upgrade the 75 amp alternator to the 130 amp(like what wires to splice,ect...)I will more than likeley be getting one of ebay that comes with the neccessary harness.I have heard that it is not difficuly and should take about an hour tops.But i just dont want to screw it up.

it is easy...one connector will click right into the 130 AMP...the other connector has 3 wires on them. cut them all. Two of them I believe are black and orange...they are the larger gauge cable....crimp them together on the same eyelet connector....this will be fastened to the post on the back of the alt... The smaller wire needs a single pole connector and it plugs right on the 130 AMP...no extra special connectors needed....if you need help...let me know...it takes 10 minutes to do....
ok so im confused?The key is to use the same harness that the 75 amp was running of of right?I just have to modify it a little .What do i use the harness that comes with the 130 amp for?Do i just need it for the plug on it?Also would it be afer to use the 4 gauge wire running from the alternator to the firewall?
