You'll need at least 200A HO alternator along with "Big 3" upgrades under the hood.
Redtop battery won't do any good with that kind of current draw. |

Alternator to battery, neg to ground, engine to chassis. |

Is that all the ways for grounding? |

those are the three major current carrying grounds. There is a ground - somewhere - for every electrical circuit in your car. Some probably share grounds, but in my car, for example there are 20+ identifiable grounding points - most of which are very low current circuits using 16-18ga wire. |

Is this the correct Big 3?
1)upgrade wire from alternater to battery?
2)upgrade wire from motor to frame?
3)upgrade wire from negative batt. terminal to grounding point?
IS THIS CORRECT? |
