OEM Stock replacement @ 105 Amps. I don't need anything else, my truck is pretty stock outside of the K&N and Flowmaster.

Only Bosch product I've used is their wiper blades but I gotta say I'm impressed. Had 'em for about a year and they still don't streak.

What's everyone else running? According to my RPO codes I have a 145 amp in mine.

Situational update:
I attempted to install the Bosch myself, but it didn't fit correctly so I figured I screwed the pouch since this was my first alternator install. I took down to my mechanic and he couldn't install the Bosch either. The factor wholes didn't line line up with the one on the motor.
I called Parts Train and bitched cause the advertise that Bosch as a direct OEM replacement part that is suppose to bolt right up. To their credit, they offered to refund the money and refund all shipping costs.
My mechanic also drives a 1998 Chevy Truck, so I asked him what alternator he uses. My mechanic said he replaced his with a 145amp AutoLite so I had him put one in mine. I opted for a brand new AutoLite instead of a remanufactured one.
