[QUOTE="mylows10, post: 7971413, member: 614593"] 1 300 amp alt and the 2 batteries in the back.you wont have any issue ever.when running the 2 separate alts like you said can run into some issues,plus the alts are for recharging purposes only ,your system draws from the battery bank ,so you need to be able to have the charging system keep up with the draw from the amps ,i just dont see the smaller alt doing that .you also need to consider that most vehicles electrical draw is usually half of the alt maximum out put or just a bit more .so if you have a alt thats 150 amps at idle its about 75 -80 amp which is what your cars electrical needs to function properly .also stock equipment isnt built to take the abuse from larger system .if you look at the windings in a stock alt compared to a ho alt there's a really big difference ,also the rest of the internal parts are beefed up as well. even 2 stock alts with an isolater wont hold up as long as you might think,they just aren't built that way .
