Uh, yeah 10 amps if you want a toasted battery - absolute maximum for that 
battery would be 6 amps for no more than 1 hour. Normal charging rate 
should not exceed 1.4 A

Looking at the schematic in the service manual, the socket has constant 
power. It runs through a fuse block (10A) but other than that, its a 
straight connection to the battery.
