Sorry to end the video with it not completed yet, as soon as i get the longer belt (to reach that last pully) i will get everything working and post more! Thanks for watching! If you want to catch updates WAY before i post a video, check out my instagram channel. I have lots of little squares showing my day to day adventures at the shop....i been posting about this for a few days. give me a follow and a share if you love car audio like i do! instagram.com/meade916
I'm running a single 300 Hi-Amp alternator from "Ohio Generator", it made a huge difference in my modest 1,800-watt dual battery system. Everything runs better through. The car, the system's performance. It may be hard for some to make that final jump, but so worth it in the end. Just a comment from a fella on the shallow end of the pool in this hobby. Your system, I love it!
That's a great display piece. People or customers can look at that and see how it works and maybe get an idea of what they might want. Really nice stuff.
probably going to mount my old alts in it and then hang it on the wall in the shop...not even going to clean them. Leave them dirty like they came out :D thanks man!
Congrats man. Thats some next level shizz. I couldnt fit the elite series in my car or thats what would be supplying my power too. But Christ one does more than enough for me. I'm stoked to see the final outcome. That stuff is FFAARR harder than MOST people can even imagine
I bought a Mechman for my Acura, after six months it broke, shipped it back to them,they received it and left the alternator on the shelf for two months,once I called for update,they forgot they had it,I was mad as hell,I will never buy from them,now I have Mike Singer.Good luck with that Steve.
i don't believe you for one second. Maybe you were "that" customer. 9 times out of ten you guys seriously embellish when you tell your cool story. I BET anything there is more to the story. Regardless, Mechman is THE best. Even Mike will tell you that. Where you think he gets parts from?
Why didnt you email them back those guys are great an shipping is fast i even sent one back an got another no problems i just emailed The guys . an it good stuff
So im having trouble finding a alternator for my 05 expedition and I didn't know they made 400 amp alternators. Oh please meter this once it is done plz!🤞🏾🙌🏾
I would love to see the engine bay get dressed up a bit. Laser etched metal reservoir tanks? Some pretty accents to compliment those pretty alts. Great content as always.
Another great video Steve! I can only imagine how heavy 4 of them bad boys all together is. I'm getting ready to install a second alternator in my Blazer so we'll see how it goes 😎
Fuckin pimp shit yo. That looks amazing. I literally put my new alternator in last night. Bought a shorter belt to make up for the smaller pulley....too short. Back to Napa tomorrow!🤣
@@meade916 But but but society...and the police...and my lack of equal education...aren't my fault I can't get anywhere, if only life were equal then I could too
Wow!!! Voltage and amperage for days...... Nice! and again motivating me. I need to figure out a solution to my PCM controlled Alt. issues if I can get that into the 15v life I will be complete. Keep up the great work bro love it! Haha B had the help me soon face but had it like a boss. Peace and Bass y'all :) :) :)
holy shit man thats insane. Hope those Fosegates like that kinda voltage playing. my kia charges at 14.4-.14.1 but when im driving while full tilting I see the voltage spikes in the 15s sucks when the voltage is controlled by the pcm usually have to turn on the ac or headlight for it to charge in the 14s other wise it sits in the 12s
Steve I just talked to mechman about going with 4 500’s and the there not making them after this order there filling also he recommended me not using for alternators on a six rib pulley how dose your run and drive ?? Any issues
this bracket would be ugly in diamondplate IMO. I'm not a big fan of that stuff. Has a purpose for some things but for the most part i think it's tacky.
Hey steve hell ya tht is a nice set up u i can imagine how it will look at the end and running... I bet system will love all the juice it will need and then some .. Theres one thing r u going to paint the bracket so it will match the color of the tahoe or something like tht?? Cant wait to see more peace
i go back 15 years on youtube with that...and way further before youtube. But he will prob say the same thing :D I am a big fan of Rittz so no hate, we are alike i guess. We even have the same birthday :D
gonna take nearly 50 ft-lb of torque off the motor just to spin the alternators lmao 25,000 watts of raw power feeding them amps, gonna level the block when the bass drops lmfao damn good work steve looks amazing as always

What's a ballpark figure for that Laguna laser machine?
Te la rifas como los grandes
@@donellis5005 $140,000 for the Fiber laser....about $13,000 for the co2
@@meade916 oh okay , good to know 👍
Hey what about high voltage amps? Have u ever tried them?
Tahoe update videos make me feel like a little kid on christmas. I still remember watching videos of it back in 2006. I was in middle school lol
🤣🤣🤣 he said don’t touch me!! Had to rewind and make sure I heard that right lmao

MAAN! This is so bad ass! Luv your work Steve! My brothers and I STAY TUNED! GREAT STUFF🙌🏾
Beautiful work...and beautiful alts.. Very nice...
I can’t wait to see the Tahoe all done 🔥🤟🏼
I can’t get over how easy that laser went through 1/4” plate

Nice setup Steve. Always happy with Steve builds. He never Disappoints😁 Revolutionary👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
I can’t wait to see where this is going with the Tahoe...that’s gonna be some serious power for all those new batteries!!
That my friend is a thing of beauty. Awesome.
That looks so clean.

Looking good! This rebuild gonna be 🔥

Damn that looks good! This series is making me want to get another DDX-12 and a Red Mechman. Good shit.
Fantastic job Steve
THIS IS ABSOLUTE 🔥🔥🔥!!!
Another great video Steve! I can only imagine how heavy 4 of them bad boys all together is. I'm getting ready to install a second alternator in my Blazer so we'll see how it goes 😎
I was waiting for this video. Your wheels are turning dude. Congratulations.
The Tahoe really going to slapping with all that power going to those RFP SERIES
Un buen aperaje para las baterias y el sonido 👍🏻🔊
Clean as Hell and can power a city block!
I like your works. Best regards to Mexico 🇲🇽
This is addicting to watch ,tools and ideas with steady results
AWESOME! I have a Mechman 400 that's going in my 2000 Silverado to run my audio system and a 240 amp to run the electrical.
Love it, I have a 2001 Tahoe and want to get 3 alternator bracket for it here soon 😀
Kong sounds like minute man. Thanks to them we make these things happen.
Fuckin pimp shit yo. That looks amazing. I literally put my new alternator in last night. Bought a shorter belt to make up for the smaller pulley....too short. Back to Napa tomorrow!🤣
imagine idling at 800amps and cruising at 1600 amps. Thats insane to think about!
Wow! That looks great.
Thats one hell of a laser!!! I'm drooling over here with my 40 watt C02. One day, one day!!!
that's how it all starts Rick bro!! trust me!!! it's now an addiction :D

Great job Steve
I’ve been making stuff with 1/4” steel diamond deck plate lately. I know that alternator setup is heavy.
this bracket would be ugly in diamondplate IMO. I'm not a big fan of that stuff. Has a purpose for some things but for the most part i think it's tacky.
Biggest name in car audio and my guy still uses kitchen knives to open boxes. Absolute legend
I seen a vid where a girl used a machete lol. "It's what I had nearby"
Dude I’m in love with your SMD Tahoe 🥰♥️♥️👍🏻badass truck
Hey steve hell ya tht is a nice set up u i can imagine how it will look at the end and running... I bet system will love all the juice it will need and then some .. Theres one thing r u going to paint the bracket so it will match the color of the tahoe or something like tht?? Cant wait to see more peace
Wow, nice engineering work Steve! Looks great! It's probably more powerful than the engine it's connected to! Lol 😁
They look MEAN AS HELLLLL!!!
Dude your shop is serious man
The wait is on!
yo.. has anyone else noticed how similar Rittz the rapper and Steve say "Yeeah" ?
i go back 15 years on youtube with that...and way further before youtube. But he will prob say the same thing :D I am a big fan of Rittz so no hate, we are alike i guess. We even have the same birthday :D
I’m looking forward to the next video👍🏻
Word nice work man
Super clean can't wait to see it
HELL YEAH! Yee, that's looking GOOD!
Wow! One heavy ass job.
Sweet Bro!!👊🏾💪🏾🔊
What an upgrade from your original garage haha
Hey man wanting to run a second alternator, its a gm 105 amp alternator, can I run one excite wire to a stock alternator or just mechman. Thanks
dam dude what kind of ground Chasey wires are using for all those alternators?
It's getting X-rated in that engine bay Steve!
that right there requiers almost 40Hp when loaded at full tilt, not including ineficciency of alternators. HOLY CRAP!
That belt is going to be under some serious load 😲
Those look Great,love that Bracket. Those are some nasty Alternates,it's gonna be bad. Mega Power.
BADAZZ STEVE!!!!
Bran man needs sum muscle milk🧐😳😂😂😂love ya bud
So sick!!!
Back up power for the Hoover Dam👌
Haha "don't touch me!"
joel Mason I had to rewind just to make so heard it right
Some sexy ass alternators. I might step up to the big leagues one day. Cant be in the big leagues with out solid electrical. Thats for damn sure
Thats a pretty sick build your working on. Would love to sport your brand in my current build I got going on.
that's soo sic, exciting brother!!!!
gonna take nearly 50 ft-lb of torque off the motor just to spin the alternators lmao 25,000 watts of raw power feeding them amps, gonna level the block when the bass drops lmfao damn good work steve looks amazing as always
that is sick steve awesome job
