Custom Steareo for 78 Ford

Hey, i was wondering if i need to run a larger alternator or daul batteries since i just got 2 12" RF P2 subs and a RF 850Watt punch amp? i also have a pioneer DEH-P6800MP deck with pioneer mids in the doors and 2 pioneer 6X9's already behind the seat... i have some other smaller mods to the interior and exterior just to add a small unique touch to it, ask if you want to know...

From what I recall, there were a couple of different alternators availible from the factory. Do you know the amperage rating of yours?

i have no clue, it seems to be pretty good considering how many lights i ahve on my truck, i have blue underglow all around, purple lights behind the grille, red ones in the cab on top, blue under dash glow, blue clearence lights where the marker lights were on the sides, and daul hologen for headlights where the factory ones went, and fog lights mounted behind the grille... with the steareo cranked already with the 6x9's the lgiths don't dim with ym phone plugged into the cigarette lighter and my ipod chargeing
