I see more than 80 amps into a single Northstar group 27 on my 120 amp alternator, and this is just a 50/120 chrysler alternator.
I've seen it do 110 amps, and no hairpin every found its way near my alternator.
But Idle speed output is hardly impressive when it is hot.
If it were, A 4 inch bilge blower would be blasting ambient air at it.
But soon I will have Alternator temperature data and theory can then take a back seat to reality, again, maybe.
