[QUOTE="sleazebagger, post: 7327046, member: 622401"] I just got a mechman off a guy on here. Suppose to be pretty decent. Those ebay specials are mostly crap alts that are like bad amps with big numbers. A good alt new is gonna cost minimum 400.00 and probably more like 550.00. Dont get fooled into special paint, chrome or powder coating cause that only traps heat which is the culprit in alternator failure. Also look into the size of the pully cause in some cases the good alt co's will add a smaller pully to get more rms's out of the alts.
