@MB, here is another belt option. 1) Space the alternator out by 1 pulley sheeve and run the existing belt off the rear groove. Buy a 4 sheeve pulley for the crank and the water pump and run the additional belt so now both belts will be the same. You will need a double adjuster pulley as well. Its a bit more work, the additional overhung load on the front bearing will be minor i believe.

You seem to be going through a lot of effort on this charging thing.
200amps would be more than enough in my view.
I haven't read all 101 pages of this thread, but I don't get why you want 800amps charging capability? have I missed something.

Ralph, unsure who this directed at MB or me? I don't know what the 800amps refers to either - maybe clear that up first eh.

POST #1008 : I have already sent this link to MB for his info. I will be buying 2 off the 400 amp units for fitment to my 100amp and 200amp alternators next month.
I assume you are replacing the 2 Alts with these 2 400amp Alts

OK, sorry. We are talking about the diode pack/rectifier upgrade only, not the alternator. I agree 2 x 400amp alternators would be an overkill unless you wanted to winch all day and the wiring upgrade would be a pain as well.

I am he, fear me
My "PeeBee Special" oil cooler arrived and very nicely engineered I must say now I've seen it in the flesh.
I'll definitely wack it as soon as possible after I sort out the unions required if I use the existing oil cooler pipes.
Thanks for putting us onto them Cobber
Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.

No problems. I was driving mine around in 40 degC over the weekend and it was cooling the oil by 30 deg however its noticeable that this decreases when the vehicle is stationary as it becomes a simply radiation temp shedding instead of having the temp being stripped off via a convection method.

MB, this should warrant a call to the manufacturer I reckon. based on it supposedly being a direct replacement this is horrible.
Secondly, no idea what the two edits mean, so again, full marks to the secret message to the beasts who can understand it!!!
