alternator specs

im almost certain the previous owner put in a lower spec alternator in my car. Its been a pain to deal with and now its starting to make a whistling noise (no its not the belt slipping, the alternator is just crap) so im finally getting a new one. Im just wondering what are the factory specs for alternators for our cars. its a 91, 305 TPI. Also what are the specs on the battery because i think it has a weaker than factory battery in it. Im just asking you guiys because ive been told the wrong stuff by the idiots at part stores before. thanks a lot

Nothing wrong upgrading. It will give you reserve
for putting in a hi power sound system for example. </FONT>
