Default Second battery questions

Hey guys, a little new here, just looking for some help. i have a 92 k5 blazer. i will be putting a stereo system in it, (i want to make it more of a movie theatre) i know how put the extra battery in and wire it, but i am wondering what i will have to do for an alternator. i am guessing i will have to get a stronger one, but where can you get one? i know in they offered a diesel engine around this year, would i be able to use the alternator form the diesel on the 5.7? also, what kind of in dash dvd player do you guys recomend for say no more than $500?
thnaks for your help!

the indash isnt gonna run that much power, are you gonna have multiple screens? i run mine with the car off. i just bought a mint condition pioneer avh6600dvd flipout got it for 300 shipped off caraudio.com/forums. if you dont mind buying used then look into pioneer, alpine, kenwood. all im running for electrical is a redtop up front, and i have 2 amps running with the screen
