Energy Problem HELP!

Hey guys,
What's goin on? Well this is my first time posting at this site and I heard its awesome I've got a black 91 Camaro RS. 305 Automatic. It's a pretty awesome car. It's got 140K on it but it runs and sounds awesome. Catback Dual with flowmasters. New starter, EGR valve, PCV valve, o2 sensor, brakes, oil change, etc. . No system yet. Well maybe you guys can help me with my current problem. When I stop, the energy guage goes down to about the 10 mark and my lights dim and I idle lower. This doesn't happen within 5 minutes of starting it.....but after that it does. I went to Murray's and they checked the battery and alternator, and said they were both good. The guy that had the car before me installed Dual fans...and had them both on the same wire connected directly to the alternator. . I was thinking this might be the problem so a buddy and I wired them seperately ...but still to the alternator becuase we couldn't find another power source for the yellow wires. So basically all we accomplished is wiring them seperately....it's still powered directly from the alternator. But the fans do sound a lot stronger now. The energy problem is still there. Does anyone have ANY idea's? it's super frustrating and I'm running out of money. Thanks!
