One of the many things the U.S restoration shops do is untape the front wiring loom tucked up under the upper grille support. Inside, you may find about 10 feet of extra wire doubled and folded into the taped up bundle. The extra length and multiple connections- some going nowhere- causes quite an amperage drop once removed. Apparently that part of the Pantera wiring loom came from a big front engine car of some type.
