Ok, I dont know anything about superformance wiring being only able to handle 60a or the superformance amp meter but here is what I did on mine when I upgraded to a 140 amp alt.

Remove the field and stator wires completly. (They should only run between the alt and regulator.)

The other wire going to the requlator (usually white) is no longer use, tie it off.

The red wire going to the alt can still be used but it is only a 14 gauge and cannot support the load so you will need to add a 10 gauge jumper from the alt to the positive side of the starter relay. This will carry the majority of the load back to the battery and not thru the fuse box.

I have a Lone Star with a Painless Wiring kit and have been running this way for 7 or 8 years with no problems.
