7M-GTE electrical power

Hey guys
Have an oddness about my 7mgte ma61. When I put the clutch in to change gears etc, and the revs are dropping, the battery/alternator power also drops (volt gauge registers a drop from approx 13.5-14v normal to just under 12 or at 12v, and headlights/interior dome etc dip in brightness) and the revs die down to about 400rpm (instead of usual 600rpm) for a few seconds. The car will have a brief spasm as if it will stall, but then it's fine.
Thing is, it doesn't do it all the time- more often than not, but its a bit weird.
Initially I though it may have been an intake leak (or intake related) but with the advent of this electrical power drop I'm a bit confused.
Playing with the idle speed screw doesn't do anything  
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance
Ryley
