Run into more than a few problems.
Alternator had to be replaced and now it's still not charging the battery. I'm in the proscces of checking all the wiring again.
And now the car doesn't start. Keeps cranking and my door locks don't work. So I'm assuming PATS is the culprit.

Probably the wrong alternator as most places don't realize it's a PCM controlled one specific to the Marauder or their computers don't know any better.
As for the locks, the car does really odd things when a battery isn't fully charged. If it were a PATS issue it would have done this immediately.
Also PATS gives a no crank.

Check voltage across the alternator output and chassis/alternator mounting points.

Marty gave me some advice on the Alt. He said to go with an 01 cobra alt. So I will try that. I've checked all the wiring and the only wire I see not getting signal is the yellow/ light green. Which controls a signal/ monitor. Everything else has 12.6 volts or more. So I will swap and see what happens.
As for the pats, Marty disabled it and I got the car to run temporarily. I found that the areomotive 340lph pump decided to not pump enough fuel to the rails now. So I will be dropping the tank, and getting this one warrantied out.
So that's my biggest issues now, hopefully I can get it straightened out soon. Tired of the car taking up all my time now.
Hopefully I can figure out why none of my door locks work anymore either. I'm gonna guess it's the Door Control module on the driver door that isn't working.... I'll cross that bridge after I get the bigger issues fixed.

You may have older brackets that are anodized on the ends. You need to sand off the anodization where the bracket bolts to the timing cover studs

You're correct, I will try that in a few. Thank you Zack.

I ended up needing a boost a pump with my aero 340.

Well from today's findings there's absolutely no fuel pressure at the rails but the pump seems to be working. Fuel filter is new, and nothing looks kinked. So I'm gonna assume the pump is no good.
I'll look into the BAP if it really needs it.

Fuel line leaking inside the tank.

I thought that could be my problem. Won't know until I get it on a lift this next week.

I had this issue on my alt. The light came on but it was actually charging. As others said, it was the wrong alternator. Gotta have a marauder specific one and most places will throw you a G.m. Mach, cobra alt as they use the same everything other than voltage regulator.
