well, the factory alternator finally died, i need to get one, but i'm not sure which one is best.
Auto Zone has 3 different ones, a 65w,70w and 80w.
what benifit would there be with going with the 80w? i don't have a systen(Yet) no special lighting, basicly a factory setup. cost is a bit of an issue, but i wouldn't mind paying more if it would help in the long run.
do the 3g upgrade you won't regret it
what is the 3g upgrade? i have seen it refered to on here, but everyone seemed to already know what it was.
its a later model alt, 130 amp. i got mine out of j/y for $35. told them it was for a 95 v6 mustang. you do need to do some wiring though. not bad to do really i had mine installed and wired in less than 1.5 hours. search for it j cassidy did a nice write up on it.
thanks, i appreciate the info. and there's no problems running more amps through than it origibuttstuffy had?
The alternator from a 3.0 Taurus will also work.130 amps baby.Like Dudeman said,easy stuff,and you will wonder why you didn't do this a long time ago.
I appologize if i am the slow kid here, but do more amps make for better performance? is it a hotter spark? I don't want to frustrate anyone, but I just don't understand this one.
No not really, but when you come to stops your lights wont dim and your windows go up and down faster while idling.
ok, thanks all, i hated to expose my ignorance, but you gotta learn somehow!
I had a 3G on my 83 when I had it. It was nicer how stuff worked.. hell the dome light was even brighter..
No opologies needed.It's all about learning.
