What Did You Do To Your Chevelle Today

[Ken Hayes]

I developed kind of a high pitch whining noise as I got the RPM's up on the car. I thought it was exhaust leaks from the welded "Y" pipes for my cutouts. I got some stuff from Autozone and put it on all the welded joints (kinda like a caulk that stands 1500*). After letting that stuff harden up I checked it again and still heard it. Grabbed the Ol Lady and had her listen and we both said it sounds like its coming from the alternator. Took the belt off and sound was gone. Took the alternator off, put it in a vise on the workbench and turned it over real fast with a drill motor........hey theres that sound again.

I ordered a 80 Amp chrome one from Summit and it should be here in another hour or so.
