More powerful alternator for gasoline W123 200

Hi, I just created an account.

I have a gasoline powered (also runs on LPG) W123 200 (80kW version) and I think that I need a bigger alternator. The law says I have to drive with headlights on all the time, then in winter I need rear window heating (and the intake manifold heater draws a lot of current). I also like to turn up the volume Add to that the fact that my work is only a few kilometers away and I get an undercharged battery. So, I think replacing the alternator with one that can provide more power would be good, especially in winter.

I googled and looked on ebay, but all I could find was alternators that would fit a diesel W123 with no information whether they wold fit a gasoline one.Connector difference is no problem, but the alternator should fit in the place it's supposed to go.

Are there any alternators that provide more than 55A current and fit a
M102.920 engine?
