The new XS 100mm Denso-style Alternator weighs in at just 6.4 pounds and delivers 75+ amps at higher rpm. For racers running 16-volt batteries, the XS Volt features a unique Voltage Control System that allows the voltage output to be adjusted from 13.5- 18.5. This feature will help racers keep their electronics at full operating voltage, which is especially important for the ignition and fuel pump. Adjustments are made through an eas- ily accessible potentiometer and this new unit is a bolt-in upgrade for the proven 93mm XS Volt Powermaster. The 100mm Denso-style housing is exclusive to Powermaster and will mount directly in place of the original 93mm model. The Alternator produces 35+ amps at idle with a peak of 75+ amps making it perfect for many drag racing applications.
