Re: My Z'ed 81
FINALLY took it for a spin on the road this weekend! It did great! I do not have my gauges on the inside just yet so I was having to guess at my ride height which was sort of stressfull. The is going to take some getting used to being this low. I still have some wiring to button up, interior to put back in, and bugs to work out.
Something I did not foresee is the need for a larger amp alternator. I am running two 450 compressor and they pull 42 amps which my stock alt does not like. I pulled it out of the garage one night to tinker and had the headlights on, but when I turned the comp's on the truck nearly died from the electrical pull. I turned them off and it was fine. So, I am only using one comp until I figure something out.
