What does it mean?

This car is driving me nuts ... right after i changed the headers. I have -----Break-- Battery... Lights on my dash. and my car died on me.. just changed the battery yet the lights still remain .... Is it my alternator? or something else... One think i notice .when the car is at park and i rev it high (rpm) light gose off and when i let it go it comes right back on.

sounds like something is not grounded right...... check over your cables and make sure there are not any cuts in them. Grounds can cause more than just what you are describing. Good luck

back on topic, is there anything not plugged in that was plugged it before you did the headers?

Alternator is shot , pure and simple, if you just installed a header on , I doubt you touch the wires from the alternator.

esp when he describe ,

"One think i notice .when the car is at park and i rev it high (rpm) light gose off and when i let it go it comes right back on."

unless his belt is loose..
