The fix for my endless alternator failure's

I just installed the Duralast DLG1923-16-4, and I'm having some of the issues others have had. My idle seems to be a bit lower than it was pre-install, and when I come off of a rev, rpm's drop to almost stall level.
Also, I'm still showing ~13.0 volts at idle and normal driving.
Any input fellas?

you reading that from the gauge in the cluster or a voltmeter on the battery with the car on??
my junkyard 145A alt off a 06 silverado pushes 14.2 volts all day everyday and its been fine for almost a year since I put it on...
If its only pushing out 13 volts you have a bad alt. should be 13.8 at the minimum

13.0 volts isn't that bad, i'd prefer to see 13.5-14.0 range, but 13 technically is enough and should not cause running problems, even if it was down at 12.5 or so it should still run fine. So sounds like you may have two separate problems. Try swapping that alternator out or doing what the thread recommends and buy a used one. The whole reason I started this thread is because I had 10 new alternators fail and a used one was the only thing that worked. I have a used one on my truck too, $60 and problem free. The alternator I got for the camaro was $40 and never had a problem.

Ok guys I did alot of research on Rectifiers. Since i am running a procharger I dont want to run the truck alternator and lose the back brace. I have gone through 5 alternators stock one,power bastards (Nevercalled me back!) orilleys rebuilt and had a local guy rebuild mine!. Did the big 3 and replaced the pig tail and fully charged battery when installed. The diodes are what burn up on us. You have to times the amp duty of 3 diodes to get the handling capacity. Higher the capacity the more amps they can handle All the cheap rebuilds and new alternators have the cheapest rectifiers with 40-45 amp diodes http://www.aspwholesale.com/rectifier-dr-p6462.html the stock ac delco had 55 amp one reason the new stuff fails. there are a couple of diffrent manufactures WAIglobal (transpro) most common, PowerMax,AS-PL,Regitar. After talking to different rebuilders if you build the little cs130d to make 200 amps it does not like that much heat in the little housing due to tight packed diodes. Plus it has to spin faster due to the stator combo at idle to make the same power so you need smaller pulley. i dont like the smaller pulley cause then it spins real fast at high rpm. basically it like shifting the power curve up killing low end efficiency (my theory)? So what i am thinking like others have stated have a builder make 130 to 150 amp max combo. 95% dont really need a mega alternator anyway unless you have a big stereo then get the truck alternator. If you have a stock alternator or a crappy rebuild just add a good rectifier and a voltage reg and let her rip. Just replacing the rec and voltage reg is easy to do your self with a 180 watt soldering iron from harbor freight for 13$ and a 1/4 socket for the reverse torx. rosin core solder too!

Question about the procharger bracket, doesn't it mount to one of the bolt holes that goes all the way through the alternator and into the engine block? Or does it mount to a bolt that only goes in the alternator bracket?
If the bolt goes into the block then it shouldn't affect the alternator bracket.

your right about that I could run a truck alternator but i will be pushing my d1 to the max and there is lots of flex that happens... i just want to have the bracing i think alchemist on here did that dont know if it held up hope he can chime in!

Is there any real advantage to using a 180-240 amp truck size alternator, does it have more advance or modern electronics or something? Many suggest replacing our small size stock alternator with this larger case truck alternator (AD244, DR44G). I rather keep the perfect fit stock size with one that a vendor has modified to produce 170-220 amps. Or is this a bad idea sticking with the small size alternator?
I've had my 98 WS6 vert since new. I have spent probably 10 hours reading up on high output alternators and vendor products.
Large Case:
They do run a smaller pulley so you need a shorter belt. One vendor told me you can't change out this small pulley with the stock pulley because these alternators "need those RPM's to kick the unit on". This large case only has two bolt holes for support, stock has three. If removing from bottom of car, not sure if the sway bar needs to be removed to get this larger alternator into its resting place. Does not have the plastic back cover and fan tube like the stock alternator.
Small Case:
I'm guessing it's harder to make this tiny alternator to put out the same power as the truck size alternator - and still make it reliable. I guess that's why very few shops sell the tiny one with larger amps.

Nothing needs to be touched when installing the large case 145A alternator .. only thing to watch is the power steering hose (may need to be massaged a little bit for room)
I also still use the stock belt on my bigger alternator.. works fine and has been for over a year since I installed it.. same with the 2 bolt mounting.. doesnt move at all...

Ok the first pic is my 200 amp stator from power bastards see what happend it got too hot and warped.
Second pic is my regitr 70 amp on the bottom with clear 70 amp diodes in it. Top is the trans pro dr4204hd the numbers are also messed up some where... dr4204hd the same as dr4200hd most likely is 50 amp and not the 70 amp transpro does not make the 70 amp one anymore. Cant tell what diodes are on it... it burnt up to!
third is the 2 next to each other they look the same
forth is my old 200 amp stator on the right and a new 160 amp stator on the left

quote from quick start alternators
"The smaller case CS130 and CS130D series alternators are always going to have reliability problems at 160-200A. Even with a rectifier rated to a full 210A output, there are cooling issues. Bearings cook, stator windings fry, etc. Upgrading the the CS144/AD244 is your best choice for a durable high output alternator."
update i have the 160amp (all they had on hand!) stator and some kind of wrapped rotor? 210 amp rectifier, new bearing,bushing etc... i am getting 14 volts at over 750 rpm but low load plug my lap top computer 10 amps draw it drops to 13
only have 2 fans pulling 30amps not to far from the stock 27 amps fans one extra fuel pump!. i hope it will last! when i kick it in to gear it drops to 650 rpm and the volts come right down and the blower fan slows down
i have given up for now. if you got a procharger have quick start build you a 140 unit if just needing a recitifier buy the 210 amp one. but if you can get the truck one and make your life easy!!!!
"The smaller case CS130 and CS130D series alternators are always going to have reliability problems at 160-200A. Even with a rectifier rated to a full 210A output, there are cooling issues. Bearings cook, stator windings fry, etc. Upgrading the the CS144/AD244 is your best choice for a durable high output alternator."
update i have the 160amp (all they had on hand!) stator and some kind of wrapped rotor? 210 amp rectifier, new bearing,bushing etc... i am getting 14 volts at over 750 rpm but low load plug my lap top computer 10 amps draw it drops to 13
