I know road race cars have crazy alternators, especially when you consider the lack of accessories. I'll have to talk to some of those guys and see if I can get a decent reason as to why.
What do you guys think about making the alternator pulley smaller?
It would make the alternator spin faster at idle, therefore making a little more power, but would it cause a problem in the higher rpms?
