Anyone know the amp rating of a stock alternator?
Specifically I'm inquiring about a stock alternator for a '91 RS 3.1, but if someone knows all of the available amp ratings for different models, that would be great.

if the car has air conditioning, it should be somewhere between 94 and 104 amps.

Cool, thank Jim. I was trying to figure out if I could get away with a 80 amp battery isolator or if I had to get the 200 amp model.
