need more power pls help

This one is a 2 parter.

1st Im looking for a bigger(higher rated) altenator the OEM stock one is not powerful enough to run my headlights and my system at the same time if anyone knows any sites that carry alt.s rated 95amps or higher pls post.

2nd Does anyone know where i can get another stock amplifier for a 91 Mazda Navajo or at least one that has the same type of quick connects that the stock amp has, possible even one that will fit the bracket the stoc one sits in?

Any help on either subject would be greatl appreciated.


BTW
in my 91 Navajo im running
2 MTX 12 in subs off of a Rampage 800watt amp
2 180 watt lightning audio 6x9's in the rear
and 2 Pioneer 5x8s (forget wattage)
off of a 200w forget name of deck was a $100.00
walmart special just to start me off

I would upgrade things such as your battery and power cables
and maybe add a stiffening capacitor before messing with your
alternator

Any aftermarket or custom built alternator with realistic output gains and reliability -- is going to cost you roughly 400-800
dollars

I would also have your stock alternator checked to make sure that its not weak or on its way out--that could be your problem

I would not expect that the one seperate power amp your using has enough current draw your stock alt. cant handle
