yeah that website was an example...
and saand:
mine is a 45amp brush one with steel cooling fans connected to the belt drive. so there is room for improvement.
remember 10 mods netting 1.5% better fuel economy each all add up in the end
.
this is my new project for next year im going to make a decent alternator
if you changed your alternator to one that is a higher amperage will it have to run less often or will it be about the same??
