What is the minimum number of yellowtops needed to run a Sundown 3000d? I've still got the stock alternator in the Frontier and want to see what I can do. BTW the Opti 50C is up for sale.

Any idea what the stock alternator produces amperage wise?

And you'll need to give us an idea how the 3000D will be wired... because if you plan on running that thing at 8 ohms.. you'll be fine

Stock produces around 60-70 amps-FAR from enough- and the amp would run at 2 ohms. Daily driver application@lower volume, with the occasional demo.

Finding a H/O alt for this thing seems impossible because of the small size and it's practically under the engine in a VERY small space.

It's on ebay right now but I'm not seeing any bids yet, ending in 4 days. Going for $300.00 shipped US. Want to put this $ toward upgrades.
