Started it after work and the lights were a tad dim but no flashing...blipped the throttle and it brightened up with no issues after. This is with the original ground to the chassis and where it bolts to is sanded down to make sure for a solid connection....thoughts?


I'd start with a new/rebuilt alternator. As Nismoguy stated it sounds like the voltage reg is shot.

Inclined to agree. Have to wait til it's at least 30 outside. No garage sucks. I am hoping it holds out til I can at least get some warmer weather. Next weekend so fat is looking to be pretty fair outside so maybe I can get it done then. I gather units from advance/local stores are garbage but there is a pretty reputable shop here that specializes in rebuilding alts and starters so I will probably give them a shout and see what their prices look like.

The quicker you do it the better. By driving around you're risking wearing out that new battery prematurely.
