The extra-clean, not origional, car that's pictured is clocked, I think 2 steps too far. That's an accident waiting to happen. The factory did some chitty stuff on the cars, but they would never had sent a vehicle out with an always hot, 10 guage wire resting on a metal ground. Also, it's not the correct p/s cap. Then again, they may have used more than one style because they will use anything laying around the shop when bulidin a car. (Not knocking the car. The point is that this more than ovious incorrect has somehow become the benchmark for others to follow. I'm not big on trying to get a car back to origional, but I do like to try to maintain whatever origional aspects of the car remains. And it's sad that someone manages to gain a position on the food chain, and use incorrect configurations as the benchmark.)

As I said, the main lead, where the red cap is, was clocked @ 12. That means RIGHT UNDER THE HOSE. Correct clocking would slove the problem

Another configuration issue is the differences in alternator belts; how it relates to this case is anyone's guess. There is a difference in belts beteen w and w/o p/s. Even though I know the component match is correct--or is at least supposed to be if the factory did its thing correctly--the correct belt doesn't fit--too long and bottoming out on the adjustment braket. I played alon for 30 years with the belt issue. I think I also tried the w/o p/s and it was too short. After a few hit or misses, I had a guy fish up a belt that fits.
