If your worried about getting enough current for AC clutch and radio get rid of the under-drive pulleys, also will help with cooling during hot days.

@CarbonPower 2 месяца назад

Great job, sir. The factory 62 amp alt from the factory wasn’t meant for the upgrades we are doing…..at idle. I have an 89 vert and the first upgrade I did was aluminum rad, E fans and a 130 amp.

@kennethelliott2267 2 года назад

You already had a 130 amp 3g alternator. Looks like just didn’t ad a bigger gauge wire to the alternator to the battery or earlier models would been to the solenoid. I have that same set up and the 130 amp is more then plenty for my stereo and electric fans ect. But the upgrade definitely helps with for safety and peace of mind. Hahaha I commented be I watch the whole thing! Lol

Fox stang. Best sounding 200hp you'll ever hear. I drove mine for 10 years daily with stock alternator underdriven and with electric fan conversion. No charge problems ever. Lights dimmed slightly at idle but came up as soon as you moved. Currently buried in my garage. Your vids make me want to dust it off this spring. Might do. Cheers. Loved your galaxie body work vids.

Melted wiring more often than not is caused by loose connections. Loose connections cause higher resistance = heat.

But I’ve always wanted a early 90s 5.0. I was gonna buy a 93 ( I think it was a 93) red 5.0. Was so clean but dude sold it five min before I got to his house😭.

Hey Craig, I’ve been watching for a while now and love your videos! I’ve got a 72 f100 and I worked on restoring a 65 mustang with my dad when I was in high school. Your galaxy videos remind me of cutting pieces off that mustang and learning how to weld new prices back on. How bad is the fox body gas mileage? I currently drive a 2000 Lincoln LS v8 and it gets 20 but it takes premium. It’s a nice car: 63,000 miles and fully loaded, but I’m tired of expensive gas. Looking to possibly trade into a fox body if it gets similar gas mileage.

@FightCornerMrlb4lb 2 года назад

Dude. Get a 3g alternator. Amperage problems solved. If that doesn't solve your amperage problems than you need to check your fuse links and ignition switch. That should be all as far as your electrical. If the heater and AC aren't blowing and that's just simply vacuum lines. If you're running bigger vacuum lines thinking that'll help with airflow that's the big mistake most guys do. Run the stock vacuum lines just like they did from the factory none of us are smarter than the Ford Engineers that created that fucking car.
