Thanks for the information.
Yes, I have AC as well, but have not been running it. I can only imagine what would happed if I did.
It’s amazing, if I add up all the numbers, between 50a of fans (if I upgrade fans), fuel injection, vacuum pump, ignition, fuel pump, etc, I am easily at 100a at idle. Not many alternators out there that idle at that current. Guess I have to up my alternator. It’s 140a, but because its a 10si, I know idle is nowhere near 100a at idle even at 3:1.
I think I’m going to get the Derale setup. Worse case, I can modify the shroud to fit. I am running a short water pump, but still only have 3” core to snout. These trucks are so tight in front with a BB.
Thanks again.
