Default 1970 Hemi Challenger Alternator

Hi all, the alternator in my '70 hemi Challenger went south. My research has failed to help me figure out whether the 60 amp or 100 amp alternator was standard on the hemi. Can anyone enlighten me?

Thanks.

Have a/c? Or any other electricity consuming options? If so, go for the bigger one. Heck, I'd go for the bigger one just because.

Thanks for the response. No electric consuming options, just the starter.

I would still go with the bigger one. But, that's just me. Not sure if that would count as "not original" at a show.....
