Lots of info here:

or this file will answer a lot:

I recommend the smallest alternator you can get. 30 amps will even drive
a well equipped IFR machine.
An external regulator is better for overvoltage control but I'm using
internal because it was cheaper and I have one.
You may want to talk to Niagra Airparts (I think that's right) for an
economical 0-320 alternator kit.
