Just looking for additional ways to take off some (frontend) weight. My stock ('69) 36 amp alternator weighs 10 or 11 pounds (I'm too lazy to go out to the garage and check), while a spare later style (100A) alternator on my shelf is the same weight. While I'm impressed with the increased "amperage per pound" capability of this later alternator, I'm more interested in less pounds per amp. My 36 amp alternator does the job just fine, but I'd sure like to put a similar amperage but lighter weight unit on the car. Label me odd, but I would prefer to retain a GM/Delco/Delphi part on the car. (Okay, if the Nippondenso part is waaaayyyy lighter, I could be talked into grinding off the label and affixing a Delphi label. :wink: )
Any thoughts or suggestions?
Thanks,
Mike
