I don't see a link. What I wrote is actual fact and I listed other sources of this info. I hope I don't need to drag my old mechanic text book out of the closet and go indepth with transistors, voltage biased diodes, zener diodes, diode trios and rectifier bridges to backup what it better explained by the above links.

What I always though might look cool and might still do to my 1967/69 trucks is to run light guage conduit and junction boxes, still playing around with it.
But for my 1949 I'm just trying to elimate all unessary wires even switching to mechanical guagesand elimating the old electric ones in the future.

Hmm... Cool it? I just pointed out the difference between the two types and provide a link to some good quality information about GM alternators. You mock me, then swear at me and I'm the bad guy?

Ryan I like the idea of running conduit to tidy the wiring up. On the right vehicle that would be a good look.
What would you personally use for conduit though? Im an electrician, so for me I picture plastic pipe haha.

I know the conduit your thinking of. It might be ok. I dont remember how small a guy can get it.
If a guy could paint it the same as the rest of the engine compartment, that might look neat too.
For a newer truck, I dont know if conduit would work or not. Depending on how new, the damn thing might have a ton of wires to hide!
