how do i go about re doing my alt to charge at say 150amps?

 

casue the 60 amps it puts out now runs the jl 500/1, barly

if i want to actually compeat, i need more, i cant even power anything over 500watts properly

 

You have PM

 

why'd ya PM him?? let us all know.. thats what forums are all about!!!

Travis

 

because Rob can rebuild it for him

 

i was hoping to get a camp, type how too, thing going on

but hell im to lazy to build my own

 

Well...here goes. [img]graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]
To get more amperage the stator(outer ring of wires)must be replaced with a unit with larger wires,or more wires.

Gains in voltage are achieved with a voltage regulator with a higher setting.oem GM's have a wide variety.
other option is aftermarket internal adjustable,or external adjustable

Durability is subject to the rectifiers(weakest link) ability to disipate heat,and convert ac current to dc current..eg:small diodes with high output stator will produce excessive heat and rectifier failure.
external rectification is possible, but expensive,and will make most alternators close to indestructable.

These are some basic facts,and applicable to all alternators in general. [img]graemlins/blah.gif[/img]

You should go and read some articles on High output altnators and there place in car audio.
you will find that they are not always the answer, in fact not completely nessesary.

But its up to you

 

How does water effect the outboard diodes?

I was kinda looking at that idea, but since I do like to play off road i windered about this.
