What alt. Should I get
I have a 89 suburban with a high output sound system,and dual electric fans. With summer around the corner I can see 100 degree nights so lights ,ac, and fans will be on HIGH....
I found a 160 amp for 130 dollars but they also have a 200 amp for 30 dollars more. I dont know if the 160A is fine or would I need the 200A?

Think of it like a hotrod engine....when the engine only produces what is needed to maintain the speed limit,but has more in reserve.
The alternator is the same way ,it only puts out what is needed ,but has more in reserve...... 200 amp is not going to hurt.......unless you do not upgrade to the correct guage wire for that type of output.

I agree , Luckily I have upgraded all my pos and neg. wires. Even the body to motor and motor to frame grounding.
