I just relocated my battery to the hatch. I started and drove it a while and all was fine. Tonight I was finishing up putting in my MSD 6A ignition. I also have a MSD blaster coil that has been in for a while. After I finished I was messing around and rerouting some the wires and acidentally touched the wrench to the screw that holds the alt cable in the alt. and a spark flew. I finished what I was doing and started the car. Before I started it I turned on my Flaming River battery kill switch. It started fine but then started to hesitate real bad and almost died a few times. I reved it up and that didn't help. The voltage gauge in the car was in the red.

Has this happened to anyone else? Know any fixes?
