Check the alt with the car running. " ...sometimes runs sweet and gives a constent 13volts usally... " sounds like you need to explore some better alternator solutions.

Run a couple of extra ground wires from the motor to the - on battery and from the body to the - on the battery. Just rig something simple to check it out.

Using the 12 gauge wire should be good enough for a short term test. If this solves your issue then you can get something more suitable later...

well today we tested with the alt things
and found it was charging but amps goin all over the place goin from 10to40to -9 all over the place
colpurt was the wire bat+ from the alt to the fuses i bypassed from the bat to alt hand got a constant 40amps the gm alt puts out 13.55 volts it surges less than before
might be idel
also discovered that my coil was bung and got a free replacement hehe they know me well at the autoparts im there major customer
