I started doing the 3G upgrade on my 89 LX. I have the alternator out of a 96 Taurus the mega fuse and holder from a 96 F150. I have 4 Gauge battery cable cut and sleeved. Have to use a 90 degree insulator because the taurus alt has a mounting boss for a bracket it gets in the way after the alt is clocked. Cut it off the first time that was a mistake, good thing i had a 2nd rear cover.
1st Ques. : I've seen the setup 2 ways for fuse location near the alternator and near the seloniod, does it really matter?
2nd Ques. Why leave the Black/Orange 10 gauge wire hooked to the seloniod or even in the car? You can cut the yellow/white wire put an eye on it and attach it to the alternator out put. This is electrically the same point as the other end of the cable at the seloniod.
