?, Powermaster one wire alt, -84 FOX, anyone done that..?

[-86GTStang]

..Got a charging problem in a Friends -84 GT. We are thinking of installing a One Wire Alt,approx 100+amp instead of OEM setup. Is this as simple as the Powermaster Homepage says http://www.powermastermotorsports.com/faq_s_-_chrome_alternators.html#15 ?
Just One wire ? Hoped to get ridd of the External reg, etc. What about the PA performance alternators http://www.pa-performance.com/display.asp?sku=3 ?
Any other Good choices for this uppgrade..? Thanks !

I had the same question when it came to installing a 100 amp into my 89 lx. it was really that easy. if you buy the 100 amp from powermaster you're going to have to buy your own 4 gauge wire though but other than that it takes a half an hour. i would hope it's not any different then what i did. i can't really see how different it could be. you'll need 7 feet of wire, i got mine form circut city.

... Thanks for your comments. Hoped it would be an easy installation.. Are you happy with the result after your rebuild ?

yeah, anything would have been beter than the stock alternator. i'm just doing the one wire right now but i might go ahead a do the 3 wire later. i don't have a lot of space at my curent apt. When all you electrical componets are running the power still gets drained pretty well. my lights are still somewhat dim until i give the alternator a little rev. it does help though a considerable bit though.
