killed my alternator last night

well I killed the alternator in my 92Z last night (my battery is also shot, waiting for a yellow top optima in the mail) I need a new alternator and figured I'd get a high output one because I put a serious drain with my stereo system (fosgate 600a4 and 1100a2 with only a 1 farad lightning cap) where do I wanna buy one and does anyone have some good part numbers? this isn't a competition car of any sorts I just want something durable, and to have no more fear of charging problems I had before.

Summit & Jegs sell the 160 amp alternator for like $160. Or try a local parts store but I seriously doubt that they carry an alternator w/ that high of an amperage. I am getting that Yellow Top Optima when my system gets completed tomorrow. Good luck.
