Alternators

[Bill Maurits <Y1TopBanana73@xxxxxxxxx>]

Does anyone have any idea what the alternator output rating on a 65
Coronet 318, non-A/C SHOULD be?

I had the bearing go bad on mine, & since most smaller parts places
around here think their stuff is solid gold, I went Auto Zone since
they had one in stock for only $40. It's a 2 belt pulley where I need
a one...no biggie. When I put it on, it doesn't charge for squat. It
will actually discharge when sitting @ a stop light when warm unless I
power brake it a little. AZ says the rating is 46 amps. I called
Advance and they have a single pulley that's rated @ 50 amps, and a 2
pulley rated @ 60 amps. Are any of these right? or should I have my
old one rebuilt?

The car does have a brand new electronic voltage regulator, and a
fairly new battery. With the old alt, it would discharge SLIGHTLY @ a
stop light IF I had my signal on.

Thanks
