You probably still don't. I still haven't seen anyone post any real

never made any such measurements myself. I have the tools to do that rather
easily, so I really ought to do it sometime.
I certainly needed one when I had my 73 running. I had a stereo system
that drew 35 amps, in addition I needed power to run lights (lights on
during daytime is mandatory here in Norway). I had to charge my battery
once a week.
And if you look at it another way, why does my 87 Audi need a 65A
alternator? It certainly doesnt have much more electric equipment than a
type 3 has. The only power option on my car is heated seats.
