SF Alternator Upgraded Wire Size?

OK one more post...
I'm curious as to what the professional powertrain installers do in this case.

I think many are using high amp alternators (I know Prestige does)

The installers also charge alot for a turn key install and tune. I think one is charging 15G for the powertrain install and tune up, unless I'm mistaken.

They slap it in just as Blas posted. But, if you ask them, they will likely tell you: 1) a voltmeter is safer than an ammeter; 2) an ammeter looks cooler than a voltmeter; 3) if you want cool, with a modicum of safety, go with an ammeter that has been shunted.; 4) if you want the most safety, go with a car other than a Cobra. And they will probably say it in that order.
