Inspired by !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! , I went researching a bit on the internet to find what else people do to try to tweak electrical systems for performance and/or efficiency. !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! :

I gave up on eliminating the alternator a while back when I seen the 16volt batteries were extremely heavy and over $1000 for just one... Plus having to charge in between every run, and trouble starting, ect...
So i decided to run a small light weight aftermarket alternator. But
I thought to myself recently after installing an electric drive motor to run my water pump on my street car, why not run one on my alternator
. Mr.Gasket sells one with a 40% over driven pulley (which is what is use on my street car to run the water pump).
How much HP does the alternatordrag really cause at high RPM? This is for an all motor car.

So it turns out "all motor" is a thing that semi-literate people type about online .
