I've been out of the loop for a while but where is a good place to get an alternator from?

Is Iraggi Alt still a good place?


I am not looking for anything really big cause it's going in a daily driver with only about 1000w in it. I guess having a bigger alt wont hurt but do you think it is still worth it for 1000w?

I wouldn't do a HO alternator for 1000 watts. Just add another decent battery.

An additional. If you don't plan on going over 1k then an Optima would be sufficient.

Will the alternator still be able to charge both batteries once they are both hooked up?
