alternator: 3sfe vs es300 V6

I have a 92 ES300 and mutliple gen 2 4 cylinder Camrys. My Camrys have kept the Lexus going with Oxygen sensors and starters. Will the alternators swap? Checker parts says the parts don't directly swap. Without removing the part from the cars, does any know if they are interchangeable? It looks like the Camrys output is 60 amps and the ES300 is 70 amps - not a big difference in my opinion.

Cool

No, only v6 alts swap to each other. and the ES should have an 80amp alt.

Well, sometimes the best thing to do is to look at the part...out of the spare alternators I've scammed from work, half of them have worked and half haven't--the plugs are all the same, but the size of the pulley varies. The drop from 80 amps (stock) to 70 amps (from several donor I4 Camrys over the years) is largely unnoticeable--unless you have the subs cranked, the fog lamps on, and the rear defoggers going all at the same time.
