When it kicks on it is a hard hit to the electrical system. I have separated the two fans by having Fan 1 kick on first then Fan 2 right after. But, when I turn on the A/C its a triple hit actually quadruple, both fans, compressor and blower. I'm working on that issue now.
'78 T/A? Get one of those fancy serpentine belt systems that come with those powermaster 170 amp alternators. That's what I plan to do. 170 amps should be plenty for all that stuff, including EFI if you throw that into the fray, but an alternator with that output is going to need something more reliable to drive it than a V-Belt which is where the serpentine comes in. Oh, and some big chonkin' wiring. LOL
