I am looking for a hi-amp Alternator for my 00 Coupe, any ideas. I read somewhere that you can use a LS2 140 amp in a C5 is that true?
I am looking for approx. 140-180amp range.
Any ideas

Excuse my noobiness, but why would you need a HO alternator?

Not sure how large of output you can get, But you have to be sure it is compatible with the C5 or else you will get voltage errors.
