I don't think they have a website... they're more of a two-man small shop a block east of 44th and Federal. I lived in the area about a year ago and noticed the shop while riding my bike to work one day. I'll certainly post some results after I've had the alternator for a while. So far so good!

Dredging up an old thread, but I recently acquired a 157 amp Denso out of a Ram 3500 van with a wheelchair lift. Super high capacity.

I am going to swap it in and upgrade to 4 gauge with a 175 block fuse.

Here is the question: I have a 91 and the OEM alt has the two terminals for gauge and ignition. The one I acquired has the pigtail. How do I know which is which for splicing the two together to make them work?

Thanks

what did the OP end up doing? me personally, i am a weight watcher **** as well. I would upgrade the stock alt and if more was needed, go from the yellow top to an odyssey batt that was smaller/lighter and provided more power.
