Re: Fusable link vs maxi fuse?

There just weren't many high draw gizmos on most 57s. Couple of taillights, plain incandescent headlights, a few dash lights, a heater fan and maybe an electrical wiper motor.

The max output may not be of much benefit but getting an internal regulated alt that outputs higher idle current can be. On my 75, switching from a 10SI to a 12SI got rid of much of the idle dimming when running headlights, blower on max and wipers.
