Reply to "Upgraded Alt/Old Amp gauge"

Otis, if you really ARE using 100 full amps of current from an upgraded alternator, it may be that you will need a dual-belt drive to handle the load without slippage. On some Panteras, dual-sheave vee-belt pulleys may cause clearance rubbing on the steel access door, as might a gilmer-belt or serpentine conversion drive. And on such aftermarket pulleys, be careful. Some are machined from cheap cast aluminum rather than much stronger 6061-t6. Cast conversion pulleys are known to have broken in half on the highway, leaving the driver stranded. This is for both Panteras and Mangustas.
