Hi all. I have done a motor swap for the exact same motor (6.6 lly) that came out of a dump truck. The only thing I had to change on it was the exhaust and the intake. The motor runs great as long as you don't plug the alternator in. We have taken the alternator off and had it tested and it passed all the tests (regulator, rectifier, and diode). I'm completely stumped as to why it will run just fine without the alternator (until the batteries die) but if you plug the alternator in it will choke the motor out and die. The wiring that goes to the motor stayed with the truck and the alternator is our original alternator off our old motor. If anyone has any suggestions, I would greatly appreciate it.
