I installed the alternator yesterday. This thing kicks ass! At a cold idle (I idle at 1000rpm's because of my cams) I have 14.5 volts. At a warm idle I have 13.8-14.1 volts. The best part is at idle with 2 fans that draw 25 amps each, 2 fans that draw 13 amp each, my head lights on, a/c on, stereo and amps on full the alternator voltage never dips. My factory alternator would dip all the way to 10.5 volts at this point, not this one.

They did a great job. I highly recommend them!
