Changes & reconstruction
The purpose of the changes below is to add practical
functionality to the electrical system with little impact to the
original electrical design. The alternator I am using is
designed as a replacement for the Model T Ford generator. It is
designed for low rpm operation and will maintain the battery even at
ideal speed.
-
Item 45 will be changed from a generator to a 6 vdc
positive ground high output single wire alternator.
-
Existing worn and frayed wires will be replaced with
30amp #10 or 20 amp # 12 copper stranded.
-
Wire # 21 replaced with 60 amp # 6 copper stranded.
-
In line fuse installed for lighting ckts & ignition
fuse item 31 will be updated.
-
Install a 6vdc + ground to 12 vdc negative ground
7.5 amp converter. This converter will be wired through the
ignition switch.
-
Reinstall the electric fuel pump.
-
Install front & rear marker lights with rear brake &
flasher functionality. This newly added ckt will be either 6
or 12 vdc. Items will be installed with no modification
to existing body or trim. Basically they will be easily
removable without any harm to the originality of the vehicle.
