504s originally came with a 35 amp alternator so I can't see how an 80 amp will help.No luck I'm afraid fellas. Same issue, lights on, revs drop, car stalls. Goes okay with lights on. I did replace the alternator to a 80A instead of 60A when I first received the car, would this make any difference? I might change the setup as Neil has suggested. Did wan;t to keep it as close to stock as possible, but this is becoming a real pain in the rear end.
