Well after a bit of research, I've found lots of folks with power adders on their LSx cars (esp those w/FI setups and big after market fuel systems) having problems with their alternators. Seems the stock 105A alt has a difficult time pushing all the juice needed to run everything and soon starts dying, but doesn't completely fail in most cases. Seems that they start to have issues providing power at higher RPMs and also during cruising ppl have seen their headlights "flickering".... I too noticed this towards the 2nd half of the season last year.
SO! I found out that you can get a 145A from a 2003 Chebby Silverado and it drops right in for $149 from Advance with a lifetime warranty (without TCG discount). Much cheaper than the 150A Powermaster which Summit lists @ $242 and many folks on TECH report their fancy Powermaster's failing.
If any of you folks are noticing your fbody's headlights flickering a bit... this might be the culprit. Thought I'd share.
