What size alternator are you guys running?

My engine bay has some polish/shine to it and the "old" alternator needs to get booted out of there and want to put in a polished one to match the look!

Anyways, is a 100 amp alternator going to still be more than efficent with my 454 big block. I have a radio/speakers but no amps/crossovers, any of that stuff. If I need to go bigger I will, just curious of what everyone is running.

Thanks.

Forgot to add that I don't have any power windows or locks.

I'm not sure what size you "need". Mine is 150 amp.
