i call them in 40 min. to see if its ready, pretty good deal really when the dealer would probably want 200.00 for a 100 amp alt.

well its installed. all i can say is if you have anything that pulls the needle down at all this is what you need. i used to dip way down when i turned the fans on and now it wont even budge below 14.
it stays right on about 15 now where before at idle it would be around 12 with nothing on.
it is awesome. i highly recommend this upgrade. ***** 5 stars
the dealer wanted 224.00 for a 140 amp and murrays wanted
184.00 for a 140 amp with a year warranty, if you ever bought stuff there you know it will do good to make it a year.
so i got a 160 amp for 169.00 with a lifetime warranty.

im glad i didnt go with the 200 amp, i used a 1 guage wire and ran as short as i could to the battery. about 14 inchs.
when i get a new camera ill post up pics.
