Thanks guy this is great info. I wish I had read the last 2 post yesterday though. I would have rebuilt my starter, instead I ordered the 12 volt conversion and battery cables.
For the 12 volt system do I need to run the ground cable from engine to frame also or to the bell housing to the battery negative for the ground?
I don’t know all about the bypass/ballet resistor. Is that to lower voltage to the gages? I know the 235 I got came with a 12 volt coil, distributor, and generator because it was a 12 volt truck it came out of.
Is this a complete parts list to complete the 12 volt conversion?
Wire harness with alternator hook up
12volt battery
AC Delco alternator
12volt Coil resister ( I already have a 12volt coil)
Horn relay
All lights
Fuel gage reducer
3 voltage reducers for accessories ( heater and radio)
Am I missing anything or something I don’t need?
Thanks a ton guys
