Not sure if my alternator is a 95 amp or 130amp, and I cannot see any AMP identification markings on it either.

Shows part #s: F4ZU-10316-AC and in the middle of the alternator on the back it says: F8DU-AA

Can someone help me identify this?

I plan to add an electric fan, probably SPAL combo with radiator from Champion radiators and just need to verify I have a sufficient alternator for the EFI system and electric fan.

Thanks!

That should be the 130 amp version, it has the larger case. From what I can tell the 95 amp version is the smaller case

This is the 95 amp version. Distance between the mounting holes is the same, the case is just smaller.
