[QUOTE="wickedwitt, post: 8012919, member: 622908"] It won't help you when the computer completely shuts off the alt. The computer currently idles (clutches) the alternator to save on things that take "dry" horsepower. You will be strictly at battery voltage during the 3cyl phase. Every other person that's done this with any success has gone aftermarket with their alt and got an external regulator unit to maintain 14v+ from it. This will override the GM cpu from telling the alt to clutch and go idle. Had a local buddy w/ a new model Silverado. He had all kinds of hel[I]l[/I] with voltage until his A/M and Ext. reg came in.
