    Replacing v8 alternator from 85amp to 120amp

    its not a fuseable link as per a modern car, its a length of special fuse wire, yellow in color from memory iv never had a problem with going from alternator to battery, id probably put a modern fuse inbetween dash and battery though

    Replacing v8 alternator from 85amp to 120amp

    wiring on the xe was all redone there chase so you can copy that i thought the factory wire only went to the fuse wire behind the battery but could be wrong you will be able to connect the battery to alternator direct. if everything else doesnt work then just join the old wire from the loom to the positive on the battery i tried a few different things and had a number of problems especially killing regulators so just bit the bullit and put a powermaster 120amp (may of been 150, cant remember) single wire in, idles at over 80 amps, only problem i had from then was spitting belts due to the small pulley but apparently factory pulleys fit back on

    Oil Filters discussion

    the short z9 is the z89a, yes there is a ford equivilant but cant remember the number, ask for an au ts50 oil filter, basically any au v8 with an oil cooler but the ts50 is the sure fire hit

    Oil Filters discussion

    you have a point, ford still sell there gtho filter designed for higher pressure oil pumps at about 80 bucks each, must just be a better designed flow but i swear reading they had a higher rated pressure releif spring. your right with what your saying so i wonder why

    Oil Filters discussion

    i would love to see a proper comparison but i use the close to period correct motorcraft filters or drift filters with the removal nut on the end, my clevo tends to take alot of effort to remove the filter http://www.rarespares.net.au/rarespares/ProductPage.aspx?product=D9AZ6731A the specs thats always missing and i really want to know with these comparisons is what pressure the bypass kicks in, with modified engines and oil pumps in performance motors it can be very important
