    There is a company who makes a 160amp alternator as well. I don't know who they are anymore, but I had my local parts store look it up. It was chrome and gold plated, and was like $450.

    Also a 4gen alternater has more amps and works just fine but you need to add some washers since the base is a little shorter then the stock alt. So plugs and all that same and just need to add washers. idk do a search lol
