Default Power Bastards Or Powermaster Alternator

Cant decided on which alternator i should go with. I have a procharged ls1 with high pressure fans dual fuel pumps still have the ac all power options etc.
Have stock radio no subs or anything, i did do the big 3 already but really didn't change my pulsing dash lights at all. I know i cant run the truck alternator cause it will hit the procharger, so i was choosing between power bastards or powermaster.
Thanks guys

Did you see the threads about this being due to ground problems?

Did they have any visible corrosion on them? Hopefully you'll get some benefit from that. There are also a number of other light flickering threads/issues, but this one ^ is the only one that I remember having straight forward results.
