Volt Meter Upgrade

Like most vehicles, my Olds had an old-school volt meter that was not going to be able to accurately display the voltage of the alternator once it was increased. No problem; a new Auto Meter volt meter fit the bill perfectly.

14-Volt Battery Installation

At this stage, all of the work has been completed to ensure that the 14-volt conversion goes off without a hitch. I now need to remove the 12-volt batteries, install the 14-volt batteries, install the Mechman Adjustable Voltage Boost Module, and set the output voltage of the alternator.

I adjusted the output of the alternator according to the directions included with the Mechman Adjustable Voltage Boost Module. I set the output of the alternator so that I measured 17.0 volts at the batteries after cold starting the engine. This couldn’t have been easier. Be sure you connect your DMM to the battery directly when setting the output voltage. See the sidebar Increased Voltage to Electric Fans on page 66 to see how the voltage normalizes after the alternator recharges the batteries after a cold start.
