Default Re: Alternator Conversion Question

Thanks every one for your thoughts.
From this I will contact my alternator seller and see what he has to offer as a compromise.
Currently, I am happy with the way it is working but concerned that it may cook the battery eventually.
After running both the generator and now the alternator, I am figuring that maybe my amp meter could be reading a little high since with the generator the setting for a trickle charge was never enough although it read OK and now with the alternator it reads 10+ and that is scaring me.
I don't drive the car regularly and saw installing the alternator as the best way to achieve battery recharge when I did use it.
Its the same old story, one modification seems to lead to another...
