Well guys got my brand new alternator from Load boss in. Let the car idle for awhile and then wanted to take it around the block...took it very slow for the first 5 mins and then I got on it a little and with my crazy 220 rwhp i did this:

For some reason I really dont think there should be metal coming through the casing




These are some of the things that were falling out of it but there is something pretty big rattling inside and also it is completely seized

Dan Dan Dan.............. I think you need to run sans an alternator. Your car is to alts what Paul's is to vapor cannisters.

It looks like the bars on the case actually snapped off too.

I wonder if the rectfier came loose and then it all let go.

Good thing that has a warranty.
