If you by pass the alternator, I've done some logginng today and found out that with the normal belt route my afr was right at 13.0 and with the battery only running the truck my afr would go to 14.5-14.7 at wot. I now can see why my motors kept blowing up heat and high 14afr's don't work.

Just wanting to let people understand what could happen and could go wrong going this route.

I have tired to tell several people about this and they find it hard to believe,but you are right Kevin.
Exactly why I never even go through the trouble of screwing with the shortbelt

good thing i dont bypass the alternator. i really dont see much gains from the shortbelt anymore. in factory form i would see 1/10 with the shortbelt. i dont see that anymore.
