    can a 60 amp Alternator be swapped out with a 200 Amp Alternator without any mods?

    Update! I have no idea what the heck is going on? I was messing with the 2A Wire, (see picture) and all of a sudden the volt gauge shot up and started charging perfect! I wiggled the wire again and lost charging again. So a bad wire one would guess, right? Wrong! I thought it was a bad wire...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    That’s kinda where I installed my RPM gauge near that location but was able to keep my air gauge. You might want to reinstall the air gauge somwhere. But it looks like a clean install. Good job.

    Manual Override of Glow Plug Controller

    well there you go! Mac mortars don’t sell used parts. So that’s where I’m going, it’s the most logical move. Unless Ericks does price matching? Kidding! Boy i’m glad thats over. Thanks

    Spare 6.2L engine question

    Agreed! The 6.5 Gep optimizer Is a very good engine. After my research on the 6.2 L I am so thankful mine didn’t have one under the hood. And after more research on my block numbers and valley castings I have a 2005 6.5 GEP with Navistar block.
