which Alternator?

[DSGBraves 10+ year member]

im looking into buying a new alternator for my car, its a 1984 monte carlo with a 350. im running a jl 500/1 and a jl 300/2. I did the big 3 in 4 gauge wire already. i have a yellowtop, and i have a 1 farad cap, mainly for show and the digital readout on it makes for a good volt meter. The alt. i got on it now is a 78amp ac delco and im getting pretty bad voltage drops. I need to know how big of an alt. i should be looking for. thanks

120ish. With your setup i'd be more worried about idle output then peak, even 100 should be fine.
