Re: alternator
If your engines only makes 140 HP you could lose 2-3 hundredths, if you're making 500 HP, not so much.
Had a El Camino 350 2 bbd, turn the AC on it would drop from 60 to 55 mph, with the 454 it never made a difference. Another example, a grownup can pick up a 50 lb bad of feed, a 4 year can't. = HP |

Re: alternator
Thanks. I didn't know I was old until you told me. LOL. My pops and brother were into the auto elec rebuilding business and I guess my brain retained some of their knowledge.
