The Denso 120 A alternator is great and the Mancini package looks nice. Only problem is the OP plans to run AC which requires different brackets and extra bracing. I don't believe the Mancini setup is made for AC.
I think the best bet for "with AC" is to try the 140 A Powermaster. If it fits great. If not make sure you buy it from somebody who will take it back. Otherwise, run the 75 amp squareback. If extra loads are AC and a bigger amp the 75 should do it. Where it really struggles is with heavy continuous loads like electric fans or big fuel pumps.
Rumor has it Powermaster is coming out with a high performance alternator that mounts in place of the squareback... we'll see.
I guess I will give Powermaster a call and get their thoughts on the 140A with A/C question...and I will also ask about the high performance squareback replacement.

According to Powermaster the 74191 squareback will mount in stock location and is now putting out 60-65A at idle and closer to 90A at cruising speed. The 140A may need different brackets, but he wasn't sure. He was not the sharpest knife in the drawer....But I think I can stay with the 74191 for my application.
