The short answer is "yes".

The long answer includes a "why"?

Even the high output alternators in the same pattern (and I've seen them up to 90A in the same frame) still have to cope with physics. More output = more heat, more drive requirements, and often overlooked - more current through the B+ cable.

IIRC, the standard unit is a 55A unit. Its under stress with everything on - heated seats, headlights, driving lights, heated rear screen, stereo cranked, and the cooling fan cuts in. But in real world conditions, its a pretty capable unit and at least won't melt your B+ lead!
