I had just ordered the same brand alternator for my 66, and you made a video at the same time haha. I"m going 6 gauge on the positive side. That's what the website says.
Nice video. I've been researching to upgrade to a 3g on my Galaxie. I'll post a video when I get it figured. If I came across a deal like this I would jump on it too! I did read last night that a single groove v-belt can only support about 100A draw. Just something to think about if you have squealing problems. Might have to search out a dual groove setup.
@@OmarRamirezGalaxie Hey Omar great video brother! I have a 64 Galaxy. The set up is pretty much the same as the mustang I think. What do I do with the wire harness coming off the fire wall?
Nice 👍🏾 but i think you need run the indicator wire from ignition back to the alternator so the alternator can charger the battery at a low rpm the black box on the side of the alternator has to terminals one goes to red wire on the alternator the other goes to the indicator wire coming the ignition
So the yellow wire you ran it back to the solenoid I’m having charging issues I’m confused about the regulator plug I unplugged it but something is still not letting the alternator charge
Ive been waiting for the engine to come back from the machine shop for months now, guy is is really backed up. But once I have it back it’s full steam ahead. Also working on the interior so I’ll have a video for that too. Thanks!
what kind of engine do u have? i have a problem with mine its from an 82 or 83 5.0 ..need to know best way to upgrade alternator I have a sound system and 6al box msd and distributor setup
Very helpful on the one wire upgrade, I'm thinking about doing the same thing to my 1972 f100
Great video; very helpful and easy to follow along with!

It works great, did it on my 1968 torino too! I’ll look up the specs on the wire, I might have to go bigger gauge.

didn’t know about the 100amp, I’ll have to research it too. but on the galaxie I’m going single belt serpentine setup from CVF!

You in the bay? I'm having starting problems .... new starter new battery, new solenoid, new alternator, might need regulator. Great video. Thx.
I’m in Southern California haha. I would say check your grounds first, a lot of problems can be solved with a good ground
nice work!

I had trouble with charging at low rpm because of that especially with playing radio or with head lights on
So the yellow wire you ran it back to the solenoid I’m having charging issues I’m confused about the regulator plug I unplugged it but something is still not letting the alternator charge
The whole harness from the regulator is removed. And I spliced the yellow with the yellow. If you can send me an email I’ll help you out
@@OmarRamirezGalaxiewhat’s your email? Defiantly can use some help

When you disconnect your battery, you only have to remove the negative cable.
Hows the Galaxie coming out?

Nice job
What was the amps on the old and on the new ?
I believe I had a generic 60 amp from oreillys. The new one was 150 if I remember correctly
It would have been very helpful if you'd shown what wires got cut/spliced. That's where im held up at.

It’s a 289 but yours is a 302 which is about the same. I have the same alternator with a sound system in my 68 Torino and it works great
So old wires are taken out with regulator or taped off?
You can leave the old wires if you ever want to go back. Just tape them up, but I just removed the harness since mine is all hacked up
Can I remove the voltage regulator? since it is unplugged?
I ended up removing that harness with the voltage regulator
Hello there, excuse me , can you give alternator powermaster number? I mean the model…
What’s your IG?
