higher amp alternator

I need a 100+ amp alternator for a 90 5.8. I can't seem to find anything. Any ideas?

Upgrade to a 3G alternator from a newer truck. They are available in the 130 amp range (and higher). I don't know a lot about it, but I know that is is possible to do this upgrade with a couple changes in the wiring. Try a search in this forum; I think I remember seeing a thread on it before...

There was a thread in the Bronco forum recently as well. It's probably still on the first page.

Its not too difficult to install a 1 wire Delco unit, in fact I'm fairly certain we have a tech article on the procedure.

Happy New Year!
