My lights flicker and the charge gauge is doing funny stuff so it's time I think.

You can install a 145 amp truck alternator but the rear brace/support will not attach. Anyone see an issue with this?

I put some stereo in the car and it needs a bigger alternator.

I have had no issues with mine. Been in there since 2005.

Did you use your stock LS1 pulley?

Have you had your car on track? I know you autocross it.
