I'm in need of an alternator for my '84 GW. My manual lists a 42, 56, 78, and an 85 amp. In addition I called a couple of parts houses and they list a 95 amp also. The only real add-on I have is a medium powered stereo which I think pulls about 5 or 6 amps. The other electrical draws are the PW/PL, A/C, heater fan, lights (including 2 driving lights) and basic electrical.
My 360 has a Delco alternator. Is there any way to tell how many amps it puts out. It worked fine for many years and I see no reason to upgrade.
The main reason I'm asking is that the 85 and 95 amp alts are around $100 bucks (rebuilt) and the 56 amp is something like $50.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
