Do you have stock wiring?

I'm doing the same thing..think I'm going with a 90 amp should be plenty

Depends on how much the fans draw, and how much other stuff you've added, like a big fuel pump, stereo, etc.

You do NOT want much more than a 40-50 amp with factory wiring.

If you up the alternator, get something like this.

Most of the time a 85-90 amp alternator is all you need.
