Has anyone experienced issues when upgrading from the stock 60 amp to the Police 100 amp alternators? I bought the police alternator for the Monaco and a 95 amp for my truck. The instructions for my truck's new one say to upgrade the battery wire, but nothing about voltage regulators or ammeters. I can't find any info on special voltage regulators, I'm assuming there must be one. I've read forum posts saying their ammeter burned out or a fire started behind the dash. My wiring is all good in both cars and I plan to get some good grounds on everything, but I'm not super versed in vintage electronics and I don't want to blow anything up.
Was also thinking about putting a fuse on my ammeters, what amperage should they be at?
