What is the rating on the 1974 OEM alternator isolator, the blue one from Sure Power Products? The nameplate has corrosion where it lists what size alternator the unit is rated for.

The alternator has been upgraded to 100amp and I don't want to have the isolator crap out because the uprated alternator fried it. It is much easier to change it now rather than later.

Probably the best information would be the experience of those who have upgraded to a 100amp alternator. Eventually two 6volt batteries will be installed for the house side so that needs to be part of the equation.

Has the original isolator survived the upgrade?

Please note I have all the info on combiner (which I have) vs isolators (which I plan to keep) and have made my decision so I'm just looking to get the above question answered. I.E. I'm not looking to start another "oil thread".
