I have looked for an alternator for about a month now. Never found a $40-50 price!
Mostly $79-129 plus a $30 core charge.  I checked some of the cars and trucks mentioned on Autozone on line. They even want a core charge on an ALL NEW unit!
At that price, might buy the Petro kit.
Any one got a rebuilder in their area? They could stock some and get some bussiness from all of us trying to find one. I prefer the CS130 because someone said it was smaller than the 12?
I am also worried about the top mount, I think it should be moved from the small stud on the water pump up to those big bolts on the head?
I have put a lager batery in that fills the whole space (24 or 25 Group?). Eventually I might put my Ham radio and possibly a wench in the Sammy.
Thanks for the thread!
