The reason i'm posting is because i know allot of you guys like to do the CS style conversion, with the wiring hardness adapter..ext. I actually did this already, got the adapter online and picked an alternator for an 87 corvette. 105AMP
Well somehow the alternator i had grew legs and walked, or rolled, away. So at work the other day i did some research and found out that you can pickup a 95AMP alternator that will bolt right in to our cars with no wiring harness or anything.
It's through autozone, P/N: DL7194-6-3 I picked it up for 60$ ( i think its priced at 69$ but i have a 20% discount) with a lifetime warranty. The 87 vette alternator isn't that much more, i think its priced alittle under or over 100$ but then tack 15$ for the harness. The difference in amps is only roughly 10.
So 60-70$ for a bolt in ready to go 95AMP is a great deal to me. I figured i'd share the wealth.
Got a question for everyone though, lets say down the road i do put a decent sound system in the car is 95 AMPs enough to run it?
I had a small system in the car before, a friend and me built a box to fit the car from fiberglass, turned out phenomenal and sounded great even with CHEAP subs. Speaker setup in the car is stock replacement + tweeters for a crisper sound. 600 WATT amp ( subs where 300 WATT X 2 ) Even though it wasn't much it really did sound good, i'm not big on sound systems, basic setup is fine with me. The real sound system runs underneath my car
