High output alternator recommendations

No, simply because you may have a larger alternator than the loads. Which "you hope" is the case. Even when these cars were first built (with alternators) in the early days, 37A units, back then everything in the car except the starter would not be more than the 37A.

Which is why you need some kind of load that you can quantify, IE measure


Understood.. That being said, if the OP has two fans with running amperage of 20 per unit would he see 40 at the battery wire on alternator with Dc amp clamp? Just trying to wrap head around this.
