Has anyone used the ultra mini alternator 50 amp alternator for street use? I am wanting to use nor on my 55 because I don't have room for the standard size delco unit and I am wondering if the 50 amp will handle electric fans, water pump and fuel pump




thanks

Frank

NO!
Water pump is the killer.
