    Is your son a better mechanic than you?

    I would have to say so. I have done a lot of mechanical work in my 50+ years of owning old Mopars. But, it had always been the same types of cars, and their associated bits and pieces. More repetition than anything new. If you know how to rebuild brakes on a '64 Polara, you also know how to do...

    Alternator suggestions. 165 Amp?

    Give this a quick read. Its pretty simple - at low rpms, the alternator puts out a lot less amps than at higher rpms. The rated alternator amps gives very little information on how many amps the alternator will actually put out at the rpms where it matters. Quality alternators do better at...

    Does your newer model car have a spare tire?

    Alternator suggestions. 165 Amp?

    My rule#1 for buying an alternator is if I can't get an amp versus rpm curve I don't buy it. The amperage rating can be VERY deceptive, especially at low rpm.

    Alternator suggestions. 165 Amp?

    That makes sense. I will assess the amp draw for my components and go from there. Thank you.

    Alternator suggestions. 165 Amp?

    Ok, so I don't need 152 Amps. Good news. What do y'all suggest then? Would the one attached be sufficient then?

    Must be a big f'n helicopter. Running on mags, once they start they need nothing but enough power to run the radios and nav aids.

    Alternator suggestions. 165 Amp?

    So sounds like marketing slant to me. If you list specifically what the rated amperage draw is on your major components we can help you decide what you need. Remember that the centrifugal devices (like the water pump and fan) amp draws varies with voltage. Centrifugal devices in general...
