Seems that there are some miss conceptions concerning the 100 amp alt single 
wire I just installed. 1. it is not a GM alt. It is in a standard 60 amp 
mopar case. 2. Yes, it is internally regulated. The regulator is attached to 
the rear, I did require 1/2" longer belts so the regulator cleared the 
block. Brackets are all orginal 3. yes tractors use this type alt BUT it was 
first developed for marine applications. 4. going to burn my wiring 
up..bull..you are not using your wiring harness. You remove the external 
regulator, install a heavy gauge wire 6 or least 8 from the alt direct to 
the battery. 5. it is self exciting..a car that sets up for long periods 
like our cars may require an increase in the rpm's for it to start the first 
time after sitting

I have rewired my Satellite, but not necessary. The only orginal wiring 
being used is the light harness.I also used some of the wires from the bulk 
head connector. Picked the biggest ones , mostly sensor wires just to pass 
the fire wall...new on both sides.  I needed more power to run my 2 cooling 
fans, A/C, amp, 6 way power front bucket seats(adaped from lincoln town car 
FORD), MSD ing.  60 amps was not cutting it. More especially at cruising car 
shows when u are idleing all day long. It was very difficult to find this 
alt. Tuff Stuff is about it. All they had was a chrome..alumium would have 
been great for me. Best $145 I have ever spent.

PS....let the smoke fly.I can handle it!!
