I'll upgrade when mine finally dies but if it isn't broke I don't see a current need to fix it. With that said, tomorrow I'll probably be hunting the diagram to hook up the 110 amp alternator that I have stashed in the garage for the occasion.
I'll post both the two and four headlight diagrams. The top one is for the chevy 2 headlights with bright and dim in the same light and the second one is for the 4 light system that GMCs use.
