stock --> 55amps
gm --> 105 amps
charge sooner, smaller pulley, or an axternal regulator

yea highest output (actual output) on stock alt. is a whopping 72 amps, and you need to incorporate a fan on the pulley eotherwise it will fry it.

you can rewind them up to 182amps (actual output) without adding anything, the regulator is safer, any auto parts store

thats not bad, its built to 150 amp, was a 105 amp prior, also the internal regulator on it is an 18v which is way to high, you need/want a 14.4 volt regulator, also externals work better because it doesnt matter how fast the alt is spinning it reads the voltage at the battery, internals are nice because less crap under the hood but it doesnt exactly regulate the voltage, according to voltage, it regulates voltage according to speed... hope im helping
