215amps with 121amps at idle.
It is bulky but measured it up this morning and in theory should just fit drivers side behind the power steering reservoir with a 200mm supported extension shaft to pickup the existing Mitsubishi alternator V belt inline.
121amps at idle should power the 6hp Warn/Mahle motor no sweat :-)

Anything over about 110/120 will usually have two belts.
That Alt of yours will pull something towards 2 horsepower at max output
Very good call too ET mate! The V belt does carry on a wee bit when hot :-(

All Things Chev
Fired the old twactor up again colder just now, pulling 14.4v :-) ET might well again be on the money!! These damn V belts have next to no tension means bar a crappy idler of 10mm say.

Sitting in the cold beast now reved up a good 14.8v + :-) Damn ‘new’ belt I believe now is getting hot and expanding/not spinning the beasty Alt :-) No wonder it hauls the winch so well in the snow boys, lol :-)
Thank you All greatly!!!!

If its stretching when hot you should smell it, hear it and see the rubber discoloured on the drive surfaces, most likely polished finish - is this what you have? If so the belt is cactus. If you are struggling with belt tension, go down one size belt if you can to get the most out of the tensioner. I get my belts from Total Tools and they have a huge selection, but Bursons should also have a good stockholding. I don't know if you have the opportunity to go a double Vee drive on your setup? If so, this will help for sure.

I believe so now thanks mate, remember I mentioned up on Dingo Hill Track a short lived burning smell that I thought was my clutch. It is a relatively new ‘Gates’ belt from ‘Bursons’ and was the smallest I could possibly fit over the idler when new/cold. There may be a way to utilise its twin pulley with an extra off the water pump pulley somehow, will check it out tonight after work, Cheers!

I see they sell a cooling kit as well.
A 2 inch 12V axial fan and 2 inch tubing, wouldn't be hard to dodgy something like that up I spose.

Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.

I have already sent this link to MB for his info. I will be buying 2 off the 400 amp units for fitment to my 100amp and 200amp alternators next month.
I sourced a 3" bilge pump fan from Whitworth marine to cool the alternators, works a treat, but generally only use it when statioary for an extended period, temps and charging seems ok with vehicle moving
