success! i cleaned up the alt innards/case and reassembled it. added a gound strap to the bottom mounting hole after sanding down to bare aluminum and ran it to the engine/frame mount and sanded it to bare steel. started like a champ, thanks to the new battery, and gave 14.56 volts with the headlights on bright. the fan kicked on at 195 degrees and it stayed at 14.32 (w/brights on). what do they say? 90% of all electrical issues are grounds? lesson learned: paint and powdercoat might be pretty, but can hurt your electrical performance. thanks to all who replied!

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
