Question about a possible idea...

[Jhonathan]

i was looking at the supercharger mounting schemes for a FBODY and i was curious about something, would it be possible to mount an alternator in the same way that supercharger is mounted? its a similar size and i cant think of another place to put it?
right now i know my stock alternator is taking a beating from my crossfire 1000D and im thinking a dual alternator system might be the way to go
if anyone has any ideas on this or any advice i would be glad to hear it before i go design a mounting bracket and buy another 105 amp alternator for it...
let me know
thanks

why not just get a new alternator?

theres a 160 amp one on ebay that fits in the stock spot

or search for other posts, someone was saying mralternator.com and some other websites sell ones that put out something like 65 amps at idle, which is really good.

I was seriously looking into the dual alt. setup. (still am actually) A good guy to get H/O alts. from is dominick@tds.net . I sent him an e-mail and here's his reply:
With minimal mods, I have a 220 amp that does between 130 and 160 amps at idle. Direct bolt on is 180 max with about 80 amps at idle.
220 $250.00
180 $220.00
both with 1yr warranty
I accept paypal.
I want to get the 220 amp model. It requires a few extra bracket bolt-on mods. But I'm afraid that even that alt. my not be enough for what I have planned!

:D ;)

96firebird with the bracket modifications will the stock serpentine belt fit with that alternator?
