What is the best mini alternator to use on a BBM low mount for a street/strip car?

I have only been using it for about a month. So far so good. I got a Denso 1-wire mini for 109$. http://www.rareelectrical.com Look under Racing. I was happy with what I got for the price just wish I had more time on it to give feedback.

I tried the mini alts, but they only put out 35-50 amps at full tilt and found we draw too many amps, we are running a delco 10si case set up for 140 amps now, it puts out 100 amps at idle cost 85 dollars. John

I run a Denso from a Toyota truck that I snagged from the cash for clunkers program It cranks 80 amps and provides 15 volts with the fan,water pump,and fuel pump running
Works perfectly with a few spacers and Andy's bracket kit

I think it was an 89 with a 22R 4 cylinder engine.
You can order one direct from the Denso website.
AndyF recommends a Powermaster with his kit but I got mine for free so I made it work.
