More Amperage
I replaced the alternator to receive a higher amperage. It was easy to install. No modifications were made. I haven't checked the output amperage, but I'm more than satisfied. When I hear the alternator singing louder than the stock alternator, I wanted to sing right a long with it. My truck is a 93 Chevy Cheyenne 4.3. No issues running, no drag when I turn on the inverters, one is 1000 Watts, the sec. Is 3700 Watts, believe me I'm more than satisfied. Maintenance is a key importance for performance.

Dont waste your time
You would think "high output" means more output at idle too, right? Guess not. Even with no accessories on (lights/AC/blower motor) it will NOT hold at 14, steadily discharges down to 12.5v. With any accessory, it will immediately drop to 12v at idle. Kind of defies the purpose. Go with the actual brand name. There was not a single piece of paper stating it came from DB Electrical directly, therefore i question the true quality. Whoever stated in the question/answer section that idle output is at least half, may be right, but not for this unit. DO NOT BUY.

I’ve got the power!
Love it! Easy mount, exact hookups, and much more power if needed! All around great purchase! Nothing negative to say! Tip: buy heaviest gage wire you can install.

Under-powered
This is billed as a high-output alternator for a 1994 C/K truck with a 350cid/5.7L. In reality this is providing less power than the stock alternator at idle, and the documentation that comes with the units shows that fact as well. So not sure why it's advertised as a higher output alrernator when it can't keep up with stock at idle - it seems to assume your idle speed is 1800rpm - that's simply ridiculous. I tried it for over a year and finally just switched back to my stock alternator to regain the ability chargw at idle.
