[QUOTE="danwat1234, post: 8050501, member: 651917"] Nice alternator. I bought a cheapo 165A alternator on Ebay for ~125 a few years ago for my 96-00 Civic. It's the stock alternator chassis size, stock pulley size and no fan blade like what yours has on the pulley. But yours has the bigger chassis, smaller pulley and fan blade. If I hook up my big 12VDC to 110VAC inverter to it and try to power a 1875w hair dryer with it for more than a few minutes on a hot day, the alternator starts to smell! Still works though. Holds at about 13.35V. I noticed when I first got it and put a moderate load on that it smelled for a few days and then stopped being smelly. Like some anti-rust coating burning off or something. Has yours ever gotten hot? If my alternator ever gives out then I guess I'll buy your alternator (yrs from now ha). How much is your alternator new from Excessive Amperage? I can't find their products on their web site [/QUOTE]
