Default 1963 Impala SS
So all my lights flicker all the time. Should I just get a bigger alt or is there something else I should be looking for. All interior and running lights are LEDs

Have you added any additional load? Is this original system with external voltage regulator?

Check the charge with a voltmeter. Have you added mega stereo or anything? What alternator output do you have?
