I've recently finished an engine swap and am now having problems with my dash and headlights. They're surging at steady intervals, dim then bright and so forth. I traced the grounds for the headlights and dash iirc to ground D in the driver's side kickpanel below the fusepanel. Anyone else have any toughts?

Check the voltage at the battery, car off. Then check at idle, then 1k, 2k. Does the volt meter show fluctuations?? Perhaps the alternator/internal regulator is acting up.
