I need to replace my alternator as the internal regulator is letting it overvolt. What do you think of duralast? Would I be shooting myself in the foot to get a duralast alternator?

it says llt, which I'm assuming means limited lifetime warranty.

why not just get the upgraded ones on ebay. Those look pretty good. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/86-89-honda-accord-prelude-135-amps-alternator_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33573QQihZ02 2QQitemZ350008571223QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW

I agree with turabaka if your gonna replace the stock alternator you might as well go with a high output one, you never know when you'll need extra juice..
