[QUOTE="Buck, post: 8761211, member: 591582"] x2, I would definitely make sure that any alts you run are going to last and perform. There was a company locally to me that re-wrapped my 130 amp explorer alt into a 180 amp, and it worked very well. If you can do multiple alts, and find a local alt company that is legit, that would be the way I would do it. I mean, the absolute best way would to be fit the biggest and best and most alts that you can from a high end alt company, but if you have the option to do multiple alts, you can just get factory ones re-wrapped into the biggest, safest amperage that they can hold. You maybe can even run a modified stock alt and get a larger alt casing for you added on alt, where you could maybe have a bracket for a very common GM alt or something. Then you could get a nice GM cased alt or go rob some out of a junkyard and get them re-wrapped. I know there's brackets that can be made to fit a larger case alt where a smaller alternator would be from factory. OP, what is your vehicle we're talking about here? [/QUOTE]
