I'm still stunned about no a.c. on the street in Nevada, even in a convertible. I was there one July, and a dry heat is still hot at over 100 degrees, and it's not fun at home either. I've become a whimp about driving without AC or at least vent wings and kick panel vents. You must be well acclimated or are packing ice.
As for the alternator upgrade, search for jrichker's tech write up on here. That way you know you are getting good instructions and are not going to melt things and release the magic electrical smoke.
10 years ago, I asked about the new UD pulleys that came along in spare parts, and was told to sell them as ash trays. Upon further checking, I had two sets of stock pulleys; one on the car and the other in the UD pulley box. I have no idea where the UD ones went. I'd guess on an other engine that was out of the car for good reason.

Unless you count second hand smoke, the only thing I’ve smoked was the tires. I watched my grandparents generation and just said no way.Did you by chance, happen too quit smoking?
It might explain the missing ashtrays.
Not to mention almost first in the "I dont know what I was thinking when I removed my AC, now I'm putting it back " threads.Here's my take on pulley's.
Back in the day it really only took about 25 extra rear wheel hp, good tires and gears to outrun cars that cost double and triple what a fox cost, so pulley's mattered. (I ran them and did fine) . In 2020, those gains get you to about the quarter mile for a new camry.
So just not worth the effort.
For a fun to drive cruiser, a nice quality exhaust and gears should do it.
Deleting the AC? It's probably second to a carbswap as the most devaluing mods for a fox.
Which one is Karthief and which one is Mike?Super close but it's more like:

sad but trueTo be honest, they are completely interchangeable
