7afe will work, you'll need to make a spacer to connect the 10mm upper bolt to... i have a 4afe alt on mine...... a 4ac alternator used the oversized HD alternators for some reason....

lex_addict vbmenu_register("postmenu_580648", true); i got my alternator from there and it worked for a week then it died.......
but if u still wanna get it from them its 75 n u have to give them your old one as part of the deal.... if u dun give them your old one that its 100 for the alternator........

does 1 alternator could operate 2 bateries linked together???
i have a 7afe but around 2000watts stereo system and i'd like to add another batterie to get more voltage from it
i'd also like to add a 1farat condenser to improve bass
any know about it?

KnightX_AE86 · 01-28-2005, 09:39 PM

hopeful · 01-28-2005, 10:39 PM

actually i used the silvertop alternator i had laying around... the connections are a little farther off to one side but its all good. I'll be returning the one I bought from them monday.
