Fried My Battery Cables Today.
Well I got my new headers installed so my buddy and I decided to take my truck for a spin with open headers and see how many car alarms we could set off. Well it all started out good untill my truck tied and started to smoke terribly. We oipend the hood up and found both my battery cables fried and melting. What had happened was when we put the pos. cable back it was touching the header so it melted and then compleated a citcuit with the neg. and BAM a huge short circuit that melted the terminals off the battery. So the lession of the day is to check your cables and make sure they do not touch your headers. So I have to go get new cables tomarrow and put em on. I love the way it sounds with open headers. Oh and by the way we set off FIVE car alarms within like 3 blocks. It was great.
