To be more specific...a monster that wont work, or worse. I was looking on Rockauto website, and they have alternator brushes, bearings, and internal voltage regulators. I always wanted a "ambulance alternator" on my rig. What I was wondering is, I currently have a 130 amp basic OE alternator. If I rebuild my alternator with "ambulance" brushes and voltage regulator, would my alternator be capable of the 165 amp output of a ambulance alternator? Or are the windings and brushes different as in to the point that the brushes won't even fit, and it would burn up my rotor and stator? Anyone ever try this?
