Walter,

You have two choices:

1)  Ford-style alternator "hot-rodded" internally to produce 100 amps or more.

2)  GM-style one-wire alternator that does away with the stock voltage
regulator, and produces 100 amps or more.

There isn't much demand for high-amp alternators in the Ford aftermarket,
because few Fords put the kind of electrical drain that Panteras do.  

On this one, I'd phone the vendors and get something from them.  It's really
ten times better than screwing around with a local alternator shop.
