Does anyone know the hot power rating of a 2001 Honda Civic coupe's alternator?

Thanks in advance!

I am trying to find out more about their alternators and how much strain is currently on it

Most honda's have a 75-85 amp rating if the car has all power options

My '01 LX 2 door had a 55A in it. WAY too small, but it IS an economy car...

Full loads on my HO alternator with my current meter indicate about 60A. Lights, AC, and defroster. No stereo.

It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."
