I got a Gm 45 amp alternator on the recomendation of Paul Kort of OROC
fame.
The 45 amp seems to make the most sense in a roadster with 30 plus year
old wiring that I beleive is designed for 30 amps appox. I have a high
power stereo with 4 speakers, fog lights and everything is wired in the
stock location. The alternator is not separately fused or anything.
I drove 7 hrs in the rain back from Arizona with every electrical acc
on and the stereo BLASTING! No problems, whatsoever.
Seems like more than 45 amps is overkill.
I have had aboslutely NO problems with my electrical system since I
made the conversion.
The only thing I am a bit displeased with is that at idle with the
lights on it goes into a slight discharge....small price to pay in my
opinion for the benefits however.
