RE: [ihc] High Amp Alternator

[<spamaddy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The advantage of the higher amp alternator is obvious (more juice for all
the fun stuff!).  The disadvantage is that the stock wiring is only rated
for around 60 amps, I believe.  Definitely the Ammeter would have to be
removed from the circuit or replaced with something that could handle
additional amps.  Some wiring may have to be replaced also, but I'm sure
some experienced binder operators could speak more intelligently about that.

	What are the advantages and disadvantages of switching to a higher
amp
alternator? What, if anything, would I have to do to the Scout if a
changed to a higher amp alternator? What are the advantages of a one wire
alternator? I've got lots of electrical goodies running at certain times
and am thinking about changing.
