Pic of the engine shows the Delco 70A standard alternator. I had purchased a 70A Balmar several years ago but never installed. I do want more charging so decided to purchase and install a 150A Balmar which required adding serpentine style belt. My thinking is that as long as I have the space and the cost is minimal, might as well just install the 70A Balmar as a second alternator vs carrying in a locker.
I like TTs application of daisy chaining them together. I see he liked it so much that he is doing same on his new boat, which tells me it worked pretty well.
