Default 3g upgrade what to buy

http://search.ebay.com/search/search...&fsop=1&fsoo=1

...basically wondering if the premuim wireing kit is worth it over the standard..

and what the diff is between the 95 alt for 158, and the 130G that just looks like is has a diff pulley on it for 190.

any other place to find these products for a cheaper price? i like the PA performance peice due to the lifetime warrenty, the one at discount runs for like 180, but voids the warrenty for some reason

I think you can buy a stock replacement from say a 94 mustang gt for cheaper than that, and they came with 130s.

Thanks but i dont see myself spending 250 on an alternator.. im gonna go check out the ones at discount for a 94gt, see how much they run for, with my core stocker. What about the wire kits? i Like how it has the fuse n shit all put together...( standard or premium)

honestly you can make your own kit with minimum 4 AWG wire and a 150 ish amp fuse, they have a 120 amp model which is 40amps more than what you have for 169

this alt is a much higher output, the two stock 10awg wires are NOT going to cut it.

ive done a few of these swaps, if you have any questions shoot me a PM

Don't Buy The Wiring Kit..it Is A Waste Of Money....cut, Solder It Yourself..it Takes 10 Minutes...
