If you get a HO alternator, do you have to uprgrade the big3 or is stock wiring ok.. or anything under 170 is ok?

You have to upgrade the Big 3, no questions asked.

the newer, more powerful alternator needs thicker gauge wire for the power to run through.

you run the risk of the wire melting if it isn't big enough to handle the current flow.

i would suggest no smaller than 4ga.
