    2 wire alt battery relocation to trunk { not a race car }

    I think the "you don't need it" commentary was covered earlier for the OP's approach. My schematic was set up for a RACE car where safety exceeds the minimum requirement. Want to use it for a different end objective, have at it. That horse is dead now.

    2 wire alt battery relocation to trunk { not a race car }

    I hope you never have a car burn to the ground because the alt charge line was hot AFTER the cut off was thrown. Not sure what you mean by the other side of the cutoff. Charge line needs to be on the battery side of the cutoff, if battery side it is always hot. If it's on the downstream side...

    Low alternator charge at idle

    Factory alternators stink for output at low RPM's. A factory 38-40 amp alternator is not putting out max output at idle. Slope is important as is minimum output. Even stock loads like you mention, AC, Blower motor, headlights, basic OEM electrical necessities overrun the factory alternator...

    Too much total timing

    Poor or inadequate initial timing setting can contribute to dieseling because the throttle plates may be open too far at idle to maintain idle. Remember those throttle solenoids they put on the cars in the early 70's when the engines started being timed at TDC. Same as cars that smell like a...
