sierra mist Posted June 19, 2007 Report Share Posted June 19, 2007 Where would I find out how many amps a stock alternator in a 2007 Chevy Tahoe puts out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

majorpayne Posted June 19, 2007 Report Share Posted June 19, 2007 Stock alternators range in output, sometimes there is a tag on the side or the back of the case of the alt that tells you the part # and also its output. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

majorpayne Posted June 19, 2007 Report Share Posted June 19, 2007 Well how much power are you going to be running? you might be able to get away with doing the big 3 to help out with that alt and doing as big as battery as you can up front, like a hc2400 or hc2000. I would think that would support 2500-3000 watts ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
