    Thanks oh masterful clown.:jrod: That's pretty much what I was looking to do. My only problem with his write up is the discouragement of using a flux capacitor. I might not own a Delorean ,but I've always wanted to install one.:rollin:

    High Amp Alternator Upgrade

    Ok, no visable rating on link(or I'm just stupid:loser:) I'm sure it would coincide with the 105 Amp alt. and to be honest I've never put a fuse between a battery and a starter. I thought the link was alt only. :dunno: ,but I have never seen this configuration before soooooo........:confused...

    High Amp Alternator Upgrade

    Thanks. :D I WAS going big three and going with an Optima then I felt some minor noise under the hood was caused by the brushes of the alternator starting to go so I figured alt first and battery next. Good question on the fusable link amperage I'll try to find a rating. I know the fuse...
