hesitation...stumbling

I've got an '89 IROC 5.7L. The voltmeter was dropping down to around 9 or 10 volts after I put in my SPAL electric fans. I figured that was it and installed a Powermaster 140 Amp alternator. Now the same thing is happening and it's causing hesitation at times. What else could be causing this? Bad battery???

Make sure that all connection bolts (ie. ground) are all metal-metal. Sand off any paint ot rust under them. That may help.
