    I’ve got a 15’ prostar cm2350 I want to put one of the 325a alternators on. I’m having trouble finding part numbers, does anyone happen to have one ? Or point me in the right direction. Perhaps the alphanumeric model code of the truck. If not I’ll have to make time to get by international.

    I don't have a part number, but units with those big alternators have the "NO IDLE" hvac option. Ask the parts guys for of those.

    What's that do ? Cut out the a/c clutch so not to bog the motor down?

    No Idle system on Internationals is a battery powered heating and a/c separate system to maintain cab temps without the engine running. There are extra batteries for this which is why they use the bigger alternators.

    Yes, I needed one when I ran my 1400 WATT Mobile Linear setup in my 85 Buick RIviera ! :>) ! It only had a 160 Amp alternator and (2) 1000 CCA batteries. That was barely enough to keep up ! At night while talking on SSB (Sideband), the headlights would Modulate right along with my voice. I got stories about that Linear setup ! Lol !
