Thanks Ed, I wasn't sure with having power steering, power top, and smog pump that a 37amp would be sufficient.

Plenty. For back then! There was also an optional 42 amp (1100696) and 62 amp (1117777) alternators available, so your car "may" have come with one of those. But you would need documentation showing them to be "correct". If you don't care about correctness, you can get one of those, or even go with a 10SI or 20SI internally regulated alternator used in the 70's and 80's.

There are very low electrical loads in a 67-69 Camaro. The fan blower motor is probably the biggest. It's probably what drove AC to get the higher output alternator.
Putting a higher output alternator into a factory 1st gen is fixing a non-existant problem.
