I'm in the process of doing the 3G alt swap but I'm not sure if I should put the factory alt pulley on it or keep the one that's on the 3G one. What did you guys do?? I don't have UD pullies (although i am planning on getting them eventually) and I do run a decent sized stereo. Which pulley should I use??

Secondly, for the fuse-link, I can't seem to find anything around here, so where did you guys get them from? I'm going to try a few more shops tomorrow but right now i'm stumped.
Thanks

I used the pulley that was on the alt from PA performance.
I also bought the 4Gauge long wire kit.

I was very impressed with the quality and fit.
I bought the kit because I wanted something "proven" rather than trying to drive around town and hodge-podge a kit together....but that's just me.

I guess it is just you. I take pride in doing something myself when it's JUST as good as any kit you can buy.. and I pay half the price! So far this project has cost me under $100 EASY.. and that's with the price of the alt and wires and connecters, etc, etc... And that's CAD also

Anyone care to answer my questions please do, because I need to know!
