Does anyone know what is the largest alternator I can put on an e350 1987? I
have asked around
at garages and can't get a real answer. The reason I want a big one is that
it is on a motorhome.

Oh my! More profanity? Isn't that a violation also?
Did you get out of the wrong side of the bed this morning?

Geoff,

I don't know if this will be of much help, but in the mid-80s many
ambulances were Ford E-350s with 460s in them.  The last 460 powered
ambulance our department ran was an '85.  It had a 165-amp Leece-Neville
with an external regulator.  Despite the high heat conditions under the
hood, the alternator did provide good service.  Please note however, that a
Leece-Neville alternator is typically note a cheap option.  You might want
to contact Van's Electric in the Indianapolis, IN area.  They seem to
specialize in high output alternator conversions for a wide range of
applications.  You should be able to find contact information for them on
the web.  Hope this helps!

Gary
