[QUOTE="Prowler573, post: 1115478, member: 561023"] Are you willing to buy without a manufacturer's warranty? eBay can provide with some pretty outstanding deals if you're willing to invest some time into it and do some research. (into sellers' trading practices, product current average pricing, etc.) Some sellers offer their own warranties of varying lengths on some stuff. Just use your head and don't jump at the very first thing that looks like it will be a good deal. With a car that old odds are the stock charging system isn't overly strong seeing as the energy needs for those older engines weren't too strenuous. You'd certainly wanna do the "Big 3" (see the stickied tutorial in the wiring section) and likely an HO alternator, too. The early-70s technology probably isn't up to the task of supplying current for an involved system.I personally have no experience with a Sledgehammer box - can't comment. I did hear a pair of 9500s on a Hifonics amp (dunno which model) and it sounded excellent. [/QUOTE]
