You'll be lucky to get 40-50 amp at idle.
Watch your gauges and start turning on your fan, radio, interior and exterior lights...
Now imagine adding 2-3 high wattage lights.
An extended idle switch will help, but even at 1000 rpms your alternator is going to struggle.
If you really want that kind of light output...L.E.D.'s.
Now I'll sit back and wait for the harbor freight junkies to chime in.

There is a saying, tho, you gotta pay to play.
