Hey it just occured to me that maybe I should have posted this in the technical forum... Sorry for the inconvience, but if you smarter guys could check this post out and offer some advice I'd REALLY appreciate it!

lights flickering at high RPMs??
definately try a new alternator, it might be producing enough power but its definately uneven, which makes me believe that its the diode or other device which is making the current straight DC instead of AC. Ive seen other cars do this on the highway, i dont think its your light wiring because you would have likely blown a fuse.
only thing I can think of is to hook an ammeter up to teh alt and measure the current it produces. does it do this even with the lights off? maybe the problem isnt showing at idle in the shop cause there is hardly a load on the alternator. maybe take it back to the place and turn your lights and stuff on so it starts doing it, then have them test it?
either way it sounds like the alternator is producing enough juice to run everything, but it is spiking and acting odd. i still suggest swapping a new one in, keep the receipt of course
