Title: AMP meter to VOLT meter conversion
Post by: Highbanked Hauler on August 19, 2016, 09:56:12 PM
   Has anyone had their amp meter converted to a volt meter ?   By their ad Red Line Gauge does them. Any experience with them ?

They did my amp to volt meter conversion on my charger cluster and they rebuilt and refaced my tic toc tach and calibrated all my other gauges for me. They all work good......

     Its to eliminate the two hot wires that have to come through the firewall connector.  My 68 burned two holes through the block and melted into to other wires.

Explained on the stickied thread LOL

More than the load itself, the lack of power iddling and the weakness on terminal... Both together.

But still with the terminal weakness, the lack of power from alt while iddling is actually what begings everything... When you give gas... Gives also more load than the actually required by the car, due the battery demand on power to get the charge back. With a good alt able to keep the batt full at any moment, more than half of the load giving gas won't get through the system, so won't get any irregular load there
