I have one on my 440.Has been on there for almost 6 years.No problems.Got tired of replacing the advanced auto ones.Was not really looking for a chromed one but figured why not.

I just bought a 100 amp one from Summit.It's made in the USA and FBO swears by it.I haven't used it yet,but it looks to be a quality piece.

EDITED: PLEASE NOTE: I thought I had a Tuff Stuff and after checking my receipt it was a POWERMASTER. Sorry about that.

me neither, not big fan of chromed stuff on engine bay, beside maybe just coil and module... preffer polished os basic rugged cast...

simply asking because someday in the past I read bad stuff about chromed alternators. I think it was really about Powermaster products not really TuffStuff, but wanting to be sure

I had one that whined and I exchanged it and that had a stripped adjustment bolt hole.




mmmm well... as far electrical parts are still good, that could it be fixed mounting on another case/housing taken from any junkyard and replacing bearings. Of course not worthly if you pay the full $150-200 rate prices

DOES REALLY A 100 AMPS TUFF STUFF ALT GIVE 100 AMPS ?

Of course not at iddle... but at the rated RPMs...would mean also at iddle gives more than the stock 60 amps

I think this post nailed more less what I wanted to heard ( but I didn't pay the full attention on the post )... I don't think Don will make it wrong on his opinion.
