Robert:   I have the same unit and it pumps out 14 from the moment I start
the car......this said, it is a race car and the output simply goes straight
to the hot side of the cut-off switch......

Hi,

So I took the bait and ordered a Denso racing alternator from DB
Electrical. Nice unit. Mounting it was a 1 on a scale of 1 to 10 with 10
being impossible. Easy, peasey.

So, here's my question: the alternator is supposed to be
"self-exciting". Once you get to 3000 rpm, the thing should turn on. I was
expecting to see the system voltage jump up a bit to 13-ish when the
alternator turned on, but that is not the case. I get ROCK STEADY 12.06
volts from when I start the car 'till I shut it off.

Can anyone else whoe's done the conversion comment on the operation of
this setup?

Maybe I should be looking to use one of the other spade lugs on
the alternator to get the thing to turn on?

Alternately confused,
rml
