i havent fitted one as such but im tippping that it would cost mega $$$
i have fitted bus alternators and earth moving which are large out puts over 160 amp and they are over $1000 retail and are huge in size. what are you planning on doin with this alternator do you have a massive massive draw needing this to supply ? imo its overkill
good car alts these days are 110amps upwards and you can buy them new for a couple of hundred
my two cents for you any way

Yeah, I have dual 325 amp stingers on my TB42 - one for each combat laser.

Is 325A enough for a combat laser these days? Wouldn't you need a couple of decent flux capacitors to modulate the RF gain?

It wouldn't normally be enough without either a flux capacitor or a thermite coil, but what I do with my set up at critical moments is, I just open the access plate and REVERSE THE POLARITY.

It's gotten me out of a lot of pickles!

Really? Is that vector polarity, or phase polarity? :?

Ah, I swap the vector polarity with the phase polarity. That's what I meant by reversing the polarity.

I swear, if people knew how much fun and hilarity we have in the auto elec section they'd stop posting their questions in General Tech!
