I think once you factor all this together you might find a 136 amp alternator is not enough and will have to put out the big bucks for a 200 amp alternator.

I've got a friend who works with his dad at a mechanic shop. If I pulled another 136A that works with my jeep, would I be better off running 2 136's or should I opt for the 200A alone, or possibly 136A+200A?
