Re: DIY Converting Alternators
Yup, that's pretty well how I did mine. Your diagram itself threw me off a little as it is for an SI alt. I kept seeing/reading that everyone swapped to SI first, then converted to CS. They even make upgrade harnesses for this. I was looking to bypass that step. Once I actually went out and opened up all of my wiring, your explanations made more than enough sense. I appreciate the help. Only thing I did for simplicity is I used the resistor in my actual jumper wire from the brown to blue instead of actually cutting the brown wire and adding it inline. That way everything is completely reversible, in case I decide to put the stock motor and setup back in the truck at any point in time.
