Hope I don't sound bad asking this, but are you SURE you don't have a couple wires backwards?------------------

Brian,
Does it run, can you drive it? Bring it around and we'll compare it to mine. You can bring your Dad by to take a look at the engine while your here. By the way no luck yet on the reciepts.Ken

well i think my dad will be cool with it. yea it runs lol but i dont know how fast im going or how much gas i have lol. but that would be cool. im still going to go to the mustang shop here and see what they say i have one of those voltage testers and it was fluctuating so if i adjust the screw on the regulator maybe i can get it right we shall see
