My Hurst Olds is in need of a new alt.anyway and I am collecting parts for the system and was wondering what amperage i should get for the alt. Here is what i will be running so far
One Punch 600aIV 4ch suppling power to (4) JL 8"w0
One Punch 200 4ch suppling power to (2) Pioneer 4 way 6x9's
two 3.5 infinity kappa's and a sony CD deck and maybe a 10 disc changer.
the punch 600 needs a 50 amp fuse and the punch 200 needs a 30 amp fuse. So up by the battery i should run an 80 amp fuse/circuit breaker for the wire? What guage wire do you recommend for this install? So should i run the wire back to a Dist block with one 50 amp fuse and one 30 amp fuse? Do you recommend a capacitor?
I want to prevent a fire from happening, not blow fuses, not have my lights dim and get the best performance out of my budget install. so should i get a 120 amp alt? maybe a optima yellow top?
Oh by the way i'm a lil worried if i can fit all (4) 8"s up on the shelf in the trunk, anybody know if this will work? The 6x9's hang down kinda far but i think i have about 11 or 12 inches to work with cause i know the box will need to stretch from wheel well to wheel well.
