No, your alt. will never fully charge a dead battery. If your alt. only puts out 100 amps, than thats all your battery will be charged. It cannot charge any more than 100 amps. ( if thats what the output of your alt. is) Its like having a hole at the bottom of a glass. You can pour water in it all day long, however, it will never get full because of the hole.
