A new squareback replacement from Flaming River... over 100 idle amps and 150 max. Advertised as cool running and durable. I saw the add in the new MA. It looks like it should work with OE style brackets. Just spendy. I'll probably get along with my late 70's "big Chrysler" alternator for now but would love to hear if anybody tries this option. http://www.flamingriver.com/index.php/products/c0023/s0013/FR1174

No I havent but I had always heard the big Chrysler one (with the fan behind the pulley) puts out alot of juice & the problem with it is how heavy it is. What is your take? Here's a BTT for ya

I'm thinking for $500 I can get two factory ND alternators wired up from a junkyard.
They say there are no such thing as a stupid question. They say there is always the exception that proves the rule. Don't be the exception.

I agree, would love to see a current (amps) vs RPM graph for all these options.
I'd love that too... I know rebuilt units ( by a brand ) get the graphic card with those values coming with the alt you get... BUT, Never have being shown those values on those newer replacements with stated higher outputs.
and AN ACTUAL PIC OF THE ALTERNATOR BEING OFFERED!!! ( not a reference pic ) wouldn't be funny, think you'll get the first squarebacks version ( IN MY CASE, what I want ) and get the late ones, since these are a bit wider making a tight fit and in some case requiring longer belts
