big3/big4 since the black orange cable limits that 250amp alt. The main struggle with the 7.3's charge circuit lies in the black orange wire and it routing thru the starter solenoid via fusible links. A simple ground to the alternator and 4awg plus wire to the dr side batt really helps. I redid my sd batt cables to match my obs with 1/0 alt cable, 2/0 dr to pass batt, 2/0 neg to block and 4/0 starter cable. Plus i added 1/0 grounds to the cab and frame along with a new 4awg cable to the distr block from the driv side batt. I used all tinned lugs and tinned marine grade cable since my trucks carry plows all winter and have the white rogers gpr's. For some reason Ford skimped on cables after 99.5 since my obs had 2/0 cables factory but my 01 had skimpy 2awg and 1/0. Doing this with fusing and clean wire loom, military batt terms, marine heat shrink and tessa tape turns out looking better than factory

love how quiet it is, properly tuned and taken care of, Wife thinks there all loud and nasty.
Thank you for the video! How it’s performing so far?
It’s been good, it’s held up to everything I’ve put it through
@ thank you
So you can have an Edge and a hydra ? i wanted to get an edge so i could monitor things on my 7.3 but thought i would have to lose my hydra tuner.
Yessir, it’s an edge insight cts3, a cts2 would work the same as well since im not loading tunes with the edge just monitoring the parameters.
@@carneyscustoms okay cool so its a plug and play and isn't gonna effect my hydra tunes?
@@johnarnold5739won’t affect them at all
Mean green alternator.
Just saying.
