CWD, Yup, everything you told me has helped. I got a 140 amp off of ebay. Did it before I read this, so I used a different supplier. I talked to them and all seemed reasonable, so I've got my fingers crossed. I drive a 2000 Taco with a supercharger which, according to my supplier, will use essentially the same alternator as the naturally aspirated engine--I took him at his word. Was a bit pricey at $155, but what the hell.
Looking to also add a couple of cooling fans, I see you have done this. My FWC Eagle has an open lead at the fuse box that will work for these fans, but all the ground fittings on the fuse block are taken up. I'm not sure now about how to ground. My electrical knowledge will easily fit a teaspoon with a lot of room left over., I'm sure I have some options for grounding, but clueless as to what they are. I've read most of the "venting" threads on this site, but found no simple wiring diagrams/photos.
Thanks again for all the wise directions you sent me.
