Re: [Chevelle-list] Alternator Question

Personally with the three things going at once I wouldn’t worry about the volts dropping to 12 as long as it comes back up during ‘normal’ operations.  A 63 amp unit should be enough if it’s in good working order.  If you also had a high-end stereo then a 100-130 amp wouldn’t be out of line IMO.   Dale McIntosh 1967 Chevelle Reference CD! http://www.chevellecd.com ACES #1709/TC Gold #92 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dave Benjamin Sent: Wednesday, August 02, 2006 11:43 AM To: chevelle-list@chevelles.net Subject: [Chevelle-list] Alternator Question   I was wondering what size of Alternator I should be using on my 1968 Beaumont (350/350). I have a 63 amp and it was working good until Sunday night I got caught in the rain coming home from cruise night. With wipers,lights and heater blower going the volts were down to 12 and was a little worried. What size Alternator are most of uses using.   Thank you in advance Dave Ingersoll,Ontario My web site: http://members.tripod.com/benj30/
