Jose came by and we got this thing on. Dont have any REALLY good pics, since it was dark and lighting was bad. Only a couple of minor probs:
1. Had to use a 4ga cable (which I bought from them) since the alt is 160A.
2. Was too long, so had to adjust a little.
3. Chrome Pulley on alternator is smaller...Made my belt seem to big, and belt started riding off. I kept my other chrome alt pulley, and I dont have an impact gun, but my air wrench provides 50lbs tq, which was enough to break the the bolt loose. Swapped pulleys, and it seems to work now.
Just started the car a bit for about 10 minutes and drove it down the street.
These are the best pics I could get now, and believe me they dont do this alternator justice (ask Jose) If you look closely at the second pic, you can see the reflection of the SP wires in the alternator. That silvery piece (vent) is what is usually black on the stock ones. Jose and I thought it might be cool to paint that part red.!!
Thanks
