After my LS swap I was driving around and the hand held for the Holley terminator X was showing about 12.2 V for battery. When I put a volt meter on the back of the alternator it shows 14v, when I put it on the battery it shows about 13v.
Just FYI, I have the original large red wire (factory wiring) connected to the back of the alternator. I am assuming that that is what carries over to the battery but I am not sure if it gets used for anything else, also FYI the car has all new factory wiring, I literally replaced everything.
Also, how the car is set up is I have 2 larger + and - wires going from the battery through the fender and then I have small distro blocks under the dash where I am using them for the holley system. So the battery comes to the one side of the block and then the other side has the connections for the holley, the fan, etc.
Anyway long story short I am pretty sure I should have upper 13s at the battery...any suggestions?
