Title: Pics of my 3G Alternator Install
Post by: Inspiribomb on August 19, 2007, 10:37:59 PM
This week my nice new battery terminals showed up, along with my heavy-duty ring terminals, etc. I used 4 gauge amp wire for a replacement, even replaced the short wire going to the starter solenoid. Of course, I had to use red amp wire for the positive side. I haven't replaced the negative side wires yet, but will. I think it turned out really nice and clean. FYI, there is some extra length going to the alternator so I can put my fuse holder inline.

Very nice.  Where did you get a polished 3G like that?  I need one.

I got it from a local performance shop (basically a Summit Racing in store form).  The brand is Tuff Stuff, model number is 7331 (IIRC), its the 150 amp 3G alternator.  Mine is actually chrome plated, and even though I much prefer the look of polished aluminum, I do really like how the alternator looks.  Runs much cooler too.
