Sorry to jump off subject alittle here...

But could I get some guidance on my set up? How much alternator do I need to drive the following electrical loads in my drag car?

Magnafuel 500 fuel pump at 13-amps
Meziere water pump at 12-amps
Duel fans on my radiator 30-amps each to start and 20-amps to run each fan
MSD 7AL 3 ignition with a MSD HVC-2 Coil
No lights except gauges

I have installed a East Coast Mini Alternator (50-55-amp) and a Optima Yellow Top Battery with a #8 gauge wire from the trunk located battery to the alternator.


One friend tells me I should be OK

Another says I need a bigger alternator and larger wire from battery?

Thanx, Chip
