[QUOTE="sexy, post: 7036911, member: 612355"] the realy big nut on the back is the positive to the battery. any other wires you have going to an alt are going to the exciter wire on a one wire alt and alts with multable wires its exciter, field, computer monitor, outboard regulator, and ground. you will need to know whats what in order to hook up an alt the right way i am pretty good with most alts so if you want pm me and i can tell you the truth about batteries vs alts when competing. batteries are for burps and no you do not run them till they are empty thats such a stupid statment that someone made wow. you dont want to drop below 10 volts ever burp or bass race. a big part of competing is having true rms meters so you can see what your lowest voltage drop was during a run. an amp clamp to see what you are pulling from the batt and from the alt. when you go to comps you will see that every single person there who is putting up big numbers has these tools and will explain to you how to use them. spl is not a guessing game you need to know what you are doing. pm me [/QUOTE]
