[QUOTE="08BIGRIG, post: 882912, member: 3985"] 370 Amps is [B][U]WAY[/U][/B] over kill!! Don't spend extra money that you don't have to. The trucks come stock with a 200A alternator and if you run certin duel fueler kits, you have to run a 130A alternator. I have ran the smaller alternator for a good bit now and have 0 issues with charging. I use all my options everyday as well and never any issues. A/C, power everything, heated seats, etc. The 6.4l has the largest alternator that comes on a Powerstroke and is oversized by a good bit to help people that run snow plows. I just don't think that its worth putting any extra money into something that does nothing and is total overkill. Also you are putting a little more load on the motor with the larger alternator as well. Just food for thought I guess, but to each their own. [/QUOTE]
