Right, so I think it is likely that the twin electric fans were over taxing the ALT and for some reason this led to the ignition quitting on me.
So, the plan is to replace the ignition box, a programmable MSD 6AL-2 and beef up the charging.
Brian has kindly offered to build me a high output ALT. I am going to rewire + add a circuit breaker rather than a fusible link.
I also will put the battery minder on board so that I can "plug my car in the mains" just like the chevy volt :mrgreen:
Plus also add a battery disconnect and an in-dash volt-meter.
