Author Topic: 3G specs RAP66 ¯ Member # 3360 posted                              Well I have purchase a 3G alt. THe upgrade looks very easy. Aside from it being a 130A alt. What are the specs that every one sees, like charge rate at idle, (most important) with underdrive pullies?

I wasnt too sure about leaving the stock pulley on the alt though. Do you recommend I put it back? -------------------- 91GT Kurgan Tuned:12lbs of boost 492.4 rwhp / 483.1 rwtq http://killcarb.org/ www.fordstrokers.com Posts: 893 | From: SF Bay Area | Registered: Oct 2003  |  : BlackNGold CaliforniaFords.com Moderator Member # 655 posted                              Leave the alt UD pulley on there and measure the voltage and idle... I'm sure it'll be fine... -------------------- -SLOWER TRAFFIC KEEP RIGHT- Posts: 5132 | From: Bay Area, CA | Registered: Dec 2001  |  : RAP66 ¯ Member # 3360 posted                              KOOL!!!
