YES this unit is ALOT more reliable than your stockie alt. (this will help out alot on the dam dimming lights. we are also looking into making an upgraded harness that will give better power transfer and distribution, and will eliminate the grounding problem in the Ford TSB.) we also include with your purchess a 6 month warenty on ALL labor and parts (excludes misuse and/or abuse) i dont think my stockie lasted 6 months HAHAHA . payment can be made with Pay-Pal to Desena51@hotmail.com .... or a money order made out to me (Mark De Sena) and mail to 370 South Plank Road Newburgh NY 12550 all taxes will be included in the price!!!! you can PM me with any other questions or feel free to call me directly at 1-845-591-7908 you can call ANYTIME..thanks for the intrest in the GB and if things continue to go well we will be able to offer more products for you here and on NECO. thank you CEG. ~Cue Co-owner/sales rep Volitile Performance ~Don Co-owner/Lead Tech.

From previous posts it was stated as being a direct plug in. I want in on this but as Mr. Anal, I want to know whats up with everything first. I can see the obvious advantages but I don't want any wiring problems (melted wires, hot (temperature wise) wires/junctions, blown bulbs or fuses) from a HO alternator in a car designed for a 130 amp alternator. For those who know about these things, this may be dumb questions--sorry. BTW, the local dealer wants $220 plus core for a stock one. Last edited by wa2tuff; 02/17/05 02:33 PM.

ALSO PLEASE NOTE THAT THE ADDRESS FOR PAY-PAL HAS CHANGED TO SALESFORVOLITILEPERFORMANCE@HOTMAIL.COM THE REASON IS FOR FASTER AND MORE CONVEINENT CREDIT CARD TRANSACTIONS!!!!!

For those who know about these things, this may be dumb questions--sorry. BTW, the local dealer wants $220 plus core for a stock one. The Tsb realy has nothing to do with this. Not realy sure what one he is referring to anyway. But basicly Tom the Contours electrical system can not handle the load of extra accessories, i.e. stereos, lights gauges etc.. Part of the reason being the contours wire harness. The ground wires can not handle the extra load put out. You may use a 4ga wire for your stereo and 4 ga ground for the amp, but that load is still put on the alternator that only goes through a minor 12ga wire(don't quote me on this size). Increasing the wire size or its capacity will greatly help the circuit complete its path to ground with its increased load. The alternater being another weak link, as it now has to power all the extra accessories that you have added, on top its normal functions that it was desgined for. They take your factory alternator that you send them, and upgrade the internals and new rectifer. It bolts up to the same locations and the harness conectors are the same. You don't even have to remove the pulley. '99 Silver svt For sale 19" Axis Neo wheels 3.0 parts, pre-98 trunk, Check classifieds bp.powell@comcast.net

I won't be sending a core until I get the new one installed so you might as well get started on one for me.

I'm paid, and my core will be there by Monday. So I could see it possibly by the end of this coming week, but probaly early the following .
