My alternator on my 69 521 is out has any done like an upgrade to a bigger alternator? Also how can I find what all the wires hooked up to my alternator mean thanks.

search dude.  My rule of thumb is to use this link and start searching.  If im still brain fucked about it, I post the question.

 

 

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=site%3Acommunity.ratsun.net   just type words like "521 alt upgrade" in at the end of the crap in the search bar

 

Not my search link but it saves me from asking stuff that has been asked a bunch.

 

Good luck.

stock i think is 30 amps, and the other option is the 60 amp one for the 521s with air conditioner (external regulated alternators)

 

the 60 amp is no more than 55 bucks at autosone with lifetime warranty

 

oh give them my number so i can get a point if u go to autozone

I went back to t a35 amper afetr bolt falling out all the time.

L16s use the smaller bolts in the block and the mount hold thru.

 

60amper use the bigger bolts so mods are needed. Best to have a few alt mount avail to see what works best and to experiment.
