I've always used a stock Moapr alternator on the motors with elephant ears and front motor plates until I got my current Cuda, I use a Powermaster 100 amp single wire GM style on it do to it not having a charging system on it. My Duster with the 400 pump gas stroker motor had a OEM 45 amp Mopar alternator on it until it died, I bought a Tuff Stuff brand 100 amp Mopar bolt on replacement from Summit, that work very well More amps when needed is way better than not quite enough

I'll deal with the charging problems before I put any GM related parts on my Mopar. I'm sure I should buy a cowl hood to right?.....
lol A cowl hood would look better than any of the mopar scoops on yor Dart.

This is the AR-Engineering kit to install it on a motor plate.

What ProSport said..."Use the AR-Engineering plate, it's nice. I use it along with a stock type water pump housing, I haven't had it milled because my pulleys line up good. But I only have 2.75 inches between the water pump snout and my radiator, so I use a cheap flex fan along with a shroud. I use a Toyota Denso alternator and will never go back to a mopar setup, it's small, mounted low, and charges at 14 volts at all times, best setup I've ever owned. I'm sure alot of guys have the mopar setups ironed out but I always had problems with them." Ditto...have 71 Dart, 440-727, TTI. Go with AR-Engineering plate, it has proper off-set with RB in A-Body which will be important in ensuring TTI fit and function. Went with Denso Alternator and did some of my own fab on top mounting it (stock alternator location) with the motor plate.

Gary I think he would rather run the 14.28 @ 93 if it meant he could stay with all mopar parts

Try and remember, by owning and racing a "Mopar" your going against the grain to start with Being strong enough to do what you want only makes you stronger Many people on here have really good intentions, many cars guys, no matter what brand they like, think thier way is the only, thier wrong Keep on keeping on

Any part that is BETTER or makes my car BETTER, I use it, no matter who made it or where it came from.
Nobody but YOU will likely care that your Mopar is 100% Mopar.....and that's fine if you want it to be that way, but it seems that you or anyone else would simply want your cars to perform better. If that's a better charging system, front suspension, rear suspension, trans, rear, whatever...........no need to handicap yourself even more.
If your Dart still has the stock 68 wiring, electrical system and alternator.........lets face it, good it's NOT. Not with all the high amp draw "cool guy" parts some run these days. When you are sitting at a light and rev the motor and your headlights get brighter, you know the electrical system leaves something to be desired.
