run you some 4 guage welding cable with some Anderson connectors and hook it up
its going to do around 650 watts at the most
so you looking at it pulling 65 to 75 amps at full power

How is it possible to have a post like this with a built in spell check that pops up on every post :shock: Grammar and punctuation are your friend :lol:

What year Blazer ?

The older models (pre 88) had a smaller alternator than the newer models.. I just installed a 667 in a 84 Chevy and it only had a 63 amp alternator in it, which I replaced with a 105.. The 63 wasn't enough to run the box to full potential but the 105 is doing much better.. I used 4 gauge wire from the battery to the amp.. I also put a 8 gauge wire from the alternator to the battery which helped carry the current..

This forum has one built in that pops up on every post.. Every time you hit the "submit" button it pops up and gives you a list of words that are misspelled and gives you the correct word to choose..

if you going to get an upgraded alternator stay away from the chrome plated

chrome retains heat = hotter alternator less amps
just stick with natural finish
