Very informative video, I will have to rethink doing this upgrade myself as you pointed out there is a lot that goes into it , but I’m glad I watched the video instead of getting into it and realizing to late that I’m in over my head🙏🏽👍🏽😎
Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge. GREAT video. I am about to start on my uncle's 50 model F1 flathead. Staying with the engine/drive train though.
Talking about the alternator upgrade while also using the amp meter, you mentioned a jumper wire so that it don't burn out. Are you running a wire from the alternator through the meter out to the starter and also jumping another wire between the two contacts of the meter? Also, is 10AWG good for over 100amp alternators or would it need to be 8?
I recently purchased a 1948 chevy fleetmaster coupe and I was wondering if you think that same wiring harness will work for me? I am planning on a 12 volt conversion aswell.
I HAVE AN ISSUE WITH MY 1941 chevy.. THERES SOMETHING DRAINING MY BATTERY IF I LEAVE IT CONECTED OVER NIGHT. ALSO IF I TURN MY LIGHT ON WHILE I’M DRIVING IT ALSO DRAINS MY BATTERY PLS HELP I NEED TO GET MY CLASSIC GOIN...OH N YES IT IS A 12v convert ... i just got the car n it came like this with this issue....
I'd check the condition of your battery and charging system. Once you are sure all that is good. I would hook up a amp meeter to different circuits to see where your geting a draw
There is no need to convert a 6 volt car to 12 volts. Just use the correct 1 gauge battery cables and a Group 2 or larger battery. If you want more juice, just use an 8 volt battery. All you will have to do is adjust the regulator.
This is completely moronic advice even for you! Sealed batteries, alternators, dual electric fans AND electric fuel pumps may not have existed in 54' but they do NOW. Do yourself a favor GET WITH THE PROGRAM.
