V-man,

Just came across this thread and I thought I would pass on to anyone doing one of these conversions that you can avoid the Ford regulator fix by adding an internal regulator inside your alternator. I had the same issues and Ken, at Autoworld Conversions, gave me the part number for the internal regulator, installed it in less than 30 minutes and no more light fluctuations. I did this to my '88 back in 2006 and haven't had any issues. It also cleans up the engine bay and the need to find a place to mount something else. I can post the part number when I find it.
