Powermaster alternators

Anybody running Powermaster alternators like them and had them last.

Been running the same 100 amp Powermaster on my cuda since 2006. Works good, although I'd like to have a little more output.

Have power master 8142 since 2005,needed rebuild and shaft replaced last year, they sold me a brand new one for approx.. 180.00 with shipping(that's about50% of a new one with shipping) john in returns is great to work with. pat (I also run there starter)

I have 2 of them, one since 2005, works great. 100 amps or so.

Thanks guys, just wanted to do a quality check before pulling the trigger.

BTW I talked to Powermaster and the Alt. listed as a 75 amp is actually a 90 amp. He said they haven't made a 75 amp for 3 or 4 years, so I'll be buying the 75 which should do the job and most likely getting a 90A.

I bought a brand new alt from Summit a year ago, then decided I wanted to step up to the 16V system... Contacted Powermaster, shipped off the alt and received it back within a week.... Only cost something silly like $34.. plus shipping...

Great customer service and I highly recommend them...

I had the #7508 (75a: 60a idle and 99a max. As you mentioned, no longer made) for 3 years then it stopped charging at idle. I feel that it should have lasted longer than it did.

Recently I decided to buy another Powermaster unit again and now I am running their new Chrysler Upgrade 165 series alternator. I agree that their customer service is excellent. I was able to speek with a sales rep and an engineer before deciding which unit to purchase.

Note: I have read that you should not exceed 75% of the alternators capacity at idle, or it will get hot and shorten its life. I suggest before you buy, double check your idle amperage needs and add 25% for your "minimum" idle requirement when buying a new unit.
