  • Amp draw...?

    How much amp draw can the stock alternator take?

    I looked up on my two amps and the max amp draw for them combined was just under 80 amps. Will the stock alternator handle this?

    I was running 150 rated amps on the stock alt and batt with (2)1 farad caps. No dimming even on bass heavy music. I wouldn't worry about it.
