    6v Alternator

    You can add an exciter wire to the 2wire plug-in, no.1 is excite term no.2 is voltage sense. Add a wire to no. 1 run into cab, by momentarily ground wire alt will start charging. Or you can add a resistor inside of alt to help turn on faster. There are several ways that will help.

    Does Optima battery charge different

    I would put a volt meter at alternator and see if voltage increases after starting. With load of lights and Horn at alternator amp meter should not show discharge if alternator is changing, should be around 6.6 to 7 volts with a fully charged battery at fast idle.

    Hot water heater will not fit

    I bought and rebuilt a vintage heater, maybe came from JC Whitney or a place like that. After trying to fit it into car found it was too big to fit . What I am doing is installing a Chinese diesel heater, they are small and work very well. I put one in my 16x12 shop, look on eBay, I brought it...

    12 volt conversion question

    I love my 6 volt positive ground alternator, turn the key mash on the floor ready to go. I use a inverter 6 to 12 to run radio or anything else that's 12volt. I guess it's how you use your car, all year like I do or once in awhile. All will work if used right.

    6v generater vs 6v alternator

    I built a 6 volt positive ground 10si . Installing was easy, built my own bracket and was able to use original belt and wire. I like it better for everyday driving. I painted alternator black to help blend in. It's what ever you like. Some like chocolate some like vanilla both make you fat.

    Hot water heat?

    I found an after market heater, it's call a Perfection. I am in the process of restoring it. I'm not too sure if it will fit without taking up too much leg room.

    12 V alternator choice

    I have been in auto electric business over 30 years and have built hundreds of 10si 6 and 12 volt units, neg. and positive grd. These are very reliable units and easy to service. The one wire units with internal resistor will excite at lower rpm but can cause battery draw over long times of no...

    Scissor Type Lift

    I bought a scissor lift from Harbor Freight, my son uses it for body work. Look on YouTube for the reviews on the lift. It will work good for service, oil and lube, tire replacement. This lift is a good buy.
