Interesting thread, as I have had some alt issues too since switching to elecric fans, I run a dual fan set up from a stratus, and when i turn the switch on it pulls the gauge down and then back up, Now it's wired where both fans come on at same time, and with only 1 switch so i can kill it after burnout to make my run. I run a 94 amp one wire, would like something bigger, Funny thing is I have my old 63 AMP that I made a 1 wire by just using a jumper and it would drop less, and it didnt take near as much rpm to excite, this 94 amp I have is a factory 1 wire and have to rev it to 22-2400 to get it to charge after first starting it. I run a #4 welding wire from battery in trunk to alt, Not sure i want to spend 165 bucks tho, lol. I just spent 220 on a new yellow top optima, as my powervolt battery was 6 years old and on the verge of failing the load test.
