So it's not 'dumbing down', it's your opinion that my setup isn't 'good enough' to be 'well-planned' apparently.

Also good luck finding a smaller double-groove pulley for the alternator.



There are are a multitude of modern alternators that are not big honking things out there. Your concern about stock appearing seems at odds with an electric fan setup but whatever.

It is not my opinion regarding a well laid out setup, it is a fact. You are still dealing with a discharge at idle. Something my 65 Cuda with it's STOCK charging system does NOT have, and yes I have AC too. If you cannot find a smaller alternator pulley, run a bigger crank pulley or bump up the idle speed a hair, well laid out can take many routes but one goal, no issues when you are done and you still have issues.

They say there are no such thing as a stupid question.
They say there is always the exception that proves the rule.
Don't be the exception.
