I doubt you will pull more than 66 amps with that (probably 10-15 amps each). Stereo????? 1000w is about 83 amps (P=I x E or I = P/E or 1000/12=83.3333)

Then you'll be hurting.

Good points 71tahoe. Thanks!!

Can some people chime in on what electrical stuff they have going and what size their alt is? And if they feel it is sufficient. The more electrical wizardry, the better! I haven't decided on a stereo system yet, but it likely won't be anything beyond typical 6x9s and maybe a sub with small amp. But I have thought about prewiring for power seats and things like that. Not continuous draw, but could run into problems, I imagine if I use too many at the same time with too small of an alternator.
