I tried to get a 90A alternator from an ebay seller who advertised it as such. I ended up getting a 65A alternator instead. I complained about it to the seller and he refunded my fees including shipping and told me to keep the alternator.
If it was you, would you give it a shot? I am thinking about it since lower amperage alternators are supposed to put less drag on the motor (maybe a minute horsepower increase). I was also thinking that it might weigh slightly less due to having less windings.
My biggest worry is whether or not it would be able to supply enough current to the fuel pump under high boost.
My fuel pump is rewired and I plan on running 21 psi on my Walbro 190 lph.
I don't have fog lamps anymore so that is a plus. I have a simple aftermarket radio and a few aftermarket gauges that light up. I must admit that I do love to use the A/C on the highway though.
Would you take a chance? I think I might, but wanted to hear what you thought. Things are tight right now for me and lots of folks and I don't mind the free gift! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/worthy.gif
