o my bad. i thought the stock one was at least 120. dam tbi thats small. i got a custom wound one for my old 95truck like 200 or 250amp from my local alternator/starter shop that builds them. the way i see it you can never have to much power but 600watts and normal options should be good for ya. my truck always pops the air pumps fuse if im at idle with my ac ON and my bass on medium volume. but i dont have my smaller overdrive pulley on my alternator. i figure its just from the voltage dipping and low idle.
if you want a cheap boost of power get a overdrive pulley for your alternator. it will just turn the alternator faster with the smaller pulley tho you might have to go with a belt alittle shorter if it slips any. i dont remember if i had to on my old tbi. i know my 97vortec does need the smaller belt for my tiny pulley.
the alt puts out more power about 1,5-2K rpms at idle its output can suck. the overdrive pulley just makes it turn faster than normal so its like reving up your motor about 1K rpms at idle for better output. just a option later on down the road if the 140 isnt enough would cheapest is to try one of those.
