Can anyone help identify this alternator? Possible mfg., and max amp charge rating. It is on my 1997 U295 8.3.
That appears to be a Hehr alternator. Very popular with the 270 & 295s back in the late 90s. I have no idea as to if they are even in business anymore. I see very few of them these days. Seems like they were somewhere around 140 or 150 amp.

Yes, Hehr is still in business (or was a couple of months ago when I spoke with them).
Check for a servicing dealer near you. Well worth overhauling (replacing bearings and diode packs).
Thank you, Mike and Brett, You knowledge and help is very appreciated.
If you can find a small rebuilder, you will way ahead, instead of trying to find the correct new alternator.
Lewco in Costa Mesa, Ca. Did mine. Bearings and a diode. Set at 13.8 volts at the battery. He liked the LN. large heat sinks. Adjustable output. Lasted 20 years before the rebuild
its a leece neville/prestolite. They have been around a long time and are quite common. as caflashbob says, any rebuilder should be able to take care of it, just make sure he understands what DUVAC is.
