I have a 120 amp denso alt that I think is for a late 80 early 90 doge van.pretty much a bolt on.but had to change the alt bracket spacers and had to change the field wire ends from a spade to a eyelet. Now Andy F makes alt mounting bracket kit for this alt that is very nice.mines been on my car for over 2 years and not have had any problems.

You won't notice a power loss unless you're at full change putting out 100 amps. Most of the time it will be 'free wheeling' under light load.
If it does go to full charge, I wouldn't image more than a 5hp loss, which you'd never feel on a butt dyno

I use a rewound CS140 with the heavy Duty diodes and remote voltage sensing that is hooked way back at the battery in the trunk.
It that basically bolts right in with a simple $30 bracket adapter. It puts out 115 amps at low idle and over 220 amps if it ever needed it at fast idle. It never puts out that much these days though, as I don't have the amp load without a stereo & amps.
You can get one out of an Escalade at a wrecking yard for cheap or at any of the auto parts houses.
Of course, I upgraded the rest of the electrical system using a modified MADD set-up.
Why? A/C, big electric fuel pump, the big twin Spal fans, electric windows, H4 relayed headlights, MSD and some day some decent music.
It almost even looks stock. No one ever notices it, or the A/C pump, mounted below it with the Bouchillon under alternator brackets and the re-routed belt drives to give significantly more belt to pulley wrap/contact.
I definitely would not hook this up to a stock or mildly modified Mopar wiring system without significant upgrades/mods. It uses a 2 gauge cable with a 250 amp fuse to feed my main power distribution lug under the hood. Then it's all big gauge cables, wires, fuses, and relays with quality Marine Grade wire fusing and related components from there.

Has anyone ever used a Altenator, or should I say be able to mount one while using a dry sump pump and vacuum pump with a motor plate I cant seem to find a place.
On my Rampage I mounted the alt on the frame rail (tube chassis) and that opens up area.. on the race car I ran a dry sump and alt.. I didnt need the vac pump
