Stock generator is rated at 300 watts.
The alternator is rated at 40 amps. Mine charges at a steady 14.5
volts. Assuming the amperage rating is accurate, 40 amps * 14.5 volts =
580 watts. Percentage-wise, almost double.

Just for curiosities sake, how much more power does that generate than
the stock generator, percentagewise do you figure?

Hi Todd,
The conversion I'm working on uses a ND alternator from a Suzuki
Samurai. Very compact alt. with dual internal cooling fans and 40A
output. The Samurai pulley is even perfectly sized and has the correct
angle V groove. I'll be removing the stock mounting ears and then
mounting it from the front instead. Cheers,

put together. I definitely need more juice than the genny gives out.
Let me know more about specifics. Or at the least, what alternator
you
run to get such great results.
