Flipped my alternator

[Degnol]

Title says it all, I'm going to route wiring through pass side of loom. Using 10ga wire. Solder all connections, etc. Anything I need to watch out for? I've been using that spiral wound loom cover and it seems to work out fine and is much less of a PITA when you have to get back into it. Advice...??????

Sounds like you have it under control.

Post some pics and perhaps a litte write up, incase anyone else wants info on this sometime.

Good luck!

Steve,
I hate to depart from the wiring diagram, color codes and all. It is a bitch that you can't, or at least I can't find white with a blue stripe wire by the foot. I got yellow, I mean the wire, cause that's all there was, besides black. Figgered that was better than splicing?????
Thanks for the encouragement.

Guess I would have used white..but that is me...

So long as you know what is going on, and write it down someplace in a manual, so that ten years or so, after you forgot everything you have done, you can look back and be back up to speed...

Good luck!

Ten YEARS???? How about ten MINUTES! I'm OLD, but still having fun, worked on the cruiser today, day off. So I'm on a high. Better than any other psychiatric help or drugs, well...most drugs. Heh, heh.
Good advice, writing down all the changes; '66 title, '74 motor, etc, etc.
Thanks,
Ed
