100+ Amp Alternators for 560SL?

Is there a high-amp output alternator available for my 1988 560SL. Can't find one for the car anywhere. What might my options be? Thanks in advance for any help.

Nope the only one available is 70, part number 006 154 61 02 and remember the cars electrical system is all set for that----therefore be watchful of any changes and damage caused by a larger alternator.

I thought the alternator, regardless of its rated amperage, only puts out what the electrical system needs at any given time.
