I don't what the current draw of the AC but alternator output tests need to be performed under load, at least high beams if not lights and blower motor.

~13.5 V is good.

Obviously measured at operating RPM of alternator. I don't what the design spec is for these but I'd guess 2,000 RPM would be good.

Voltage measurements without meaningful current draw (load) reveals very little.
