72RoadRunnerGTX replied to the thread Underhood Ammeter Bypass.One way to run added loads with this system. Leaves the ammeter function intact and retains the factory dash harness and circuit protection.

72RoadRunnerGTX replied to the thread Underhood Ammeter Bypass.Just stumbled across this older thread about this “under-hood” or “shunt wire” by-pass. Read through it pretty thoroughly, not one...
-
72RoadRunnerGTX replied to the thread Ammeter bypass.Likely the relatively low alternator output at idle of the early stock alternators in relation to whatever loads are taking place. Some...
-
72RoadRunnerGTX replied to the thread Ammeter bypass.Some more load testing for this “Shunt wire” by-pass. 120+ amps on the stock wiring before any circuit protection trips?

72RoadRunnerGTX replied to the thread 1969 Plymouth Fury, Starting/Ignition or electric issue?.Indeed, someone with an apparent electrician background, suggesting wiring circuit protection devices (fusible links in this case) in...

72RoadRunnerGTX replied to the thread 1969 Plymouth Fury, Starting/Ignition or electric issue?.“Firestarter ammeter”? The myth continues. Well for that matter, there really isn’t anything in this post I can agree with except maybe...

72RoadRunnerGTX replied to the thread Ammeter bypass.Yes, the engineers that created original design for that bulkhead charge path connection got it right. The early sixties bulkhead screw...

There's no reason why this can't be applied to other bodies. As you say, those are the easiest ones to do. I think the '66 up fuse...

72RoadRunnerGTX replied to the thread Ammeter bypass.Didn’t think about it at the time, I could have emphasized in the videos more, this C-body recall approach as an alternative to the...

72RoadRunnerGTX replied to the thread Ammeter bypass.No fusible link was part of the recall wire as I recall, not really needed there to parallel the alternator output feed to splice 1. In...

I watched the video. Great stuff! One question on the "recall wire". Does that have a fusible link in it? I'm going to make the...

72RoadRunnerGTX replied to the thread Ammeter bypass.Authority? no, I don’t, just a quick reference once in a while on parts applications/interchangeability. For that, haven’t run into many...

72RoadRunnerGTX replied to the thread Ammeter bypass.Stand corrected on that, I recall now, Valiant /6 only in ’60 for the alternator, across the board in ’61 pretty much according the...
