2024 Mustang GT Alternator Amperage?

[DarkkMatter]

I've been trying to track down what the stock alternator amperage is for the S650 style Mustang, and it isn't easy, but I think I have found it for the '24 Stangs at least which should be the same for the '25.

Searches, AI, Dealerships, and Ford istelf were a bust, but then I got the Ford Part #, did a search by that and luckily one site showed the sticker that I think shows the amps, which is 190.
You can see the pics here: https://www.tascaparts.com/oem-parts/ford-alternator-assembly-pr3z10346b It fits the 5.0 trims. Assuming that 190 on the sticker is the amperage?

Why exactly you trying to get that info? Audio stuff?

I believe that 190 is correct... seems I've seen that elsewhere.

Yeah, I'm putting in either a 1000 or 1,200 watt amp for two 10" subs. Just want to be sure I'm not exceeding too much amp draw. I know the stock systems draw a certain amount.

In exact same boat, 1000W for 2 12s at a 2 ohm total draw, 90A load. 190A seems like plenty of room. Hoping Big 3 are already 4ga too then.

we now have verification that it is 190A. GT and DH share this same part

given that the fuse for the alternator on the BCMC/battery junction box is 275A, logic states that the wiring is rated for that or above, because there's no point to a fuse if the wire fails before the fuse does
