I have a 69 390 galaxie 500 that needs a altenator, if I get a 100a external regulator alt will my regulator be able to handle it. Something about 50a at idle capable. Thanks in advance.

I really don't know for sure, but I would say that the reg. would be the same, its reg. volts, and you'll have about the same volts anyway.Quote:

yeah, you shouldn't have problems with the regulator at all... the bigger amp altenators are just made so you can add extra accessories and such without putting a huge drain on your system...
Thanks guys for putting my mind at ease. Been toolin around here, lot's of good info.
