okay say that for some reason i install this water 4 gas thing and it actually works can it hurt my engine?
I've heard it draws around 10 amps. Given that A body alternators were rated for between 23 and 45 amps, the current draw is non-trivial. Even if the amount of hydrogen produced is.
An alternator is one of the most inefficient devices on your car. Maybe 20% of the mechanical energy you put in is converted into electrical energy. The rest is wasted in the form of friction and heat. So right off the bat, you are loosing big time at this first step.

Sounds like a more efficient alternator would be a better invention? Any ideas out there?

how about a handcrank starter, motorcycle battery and LED headlamps? that should cut down on your power draw nicely.
