Alternator Upgrade is a DOWN grade, and a bad, bad, bad.
N.B. Please read data include in other post headed ----100$ or less mods.

I see "redlightingsvx" as the one thread author, and "letitsnow" as the other. In addition, threads on the internet are just that - public property on the internet, anyone can view or link to them.
