jluna94 Posted June 6, 2019 Report Share Posted June 6, 2019 Hello, everybody I’m looking for any info on a j16 alternator. I purchased a j16 and it only needs the alternator. By any chance does someone have info where I can purchase one and would be a upgraded alternator as well. Thanks, and take care as always . Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted June 6, 2019 Report Share Posted June 6, 2019 Only the J13 was imported in the mid '60s 520 truck. One of those might fit but very low output. I think Mexico had J18s and J15s in the 620 or maybe the 720 trucks. Mexican 510s had J series engines. Where did you get it? The J16 was, I think, strictly a JDM use engine. Was it imported? An early D21 Hardbody truck had a Vee pulley and about 80/90 amp output. Make it fit. Your harness needs two pair of wires to be joined together to convert it for internal voltage regulator.

datzenmike Posted June 6, 2019 Report Share Posted June 6, 2019 Generally when Nissan makes an alternator they are used on several different cars and engines so the mounts are different but the alternators are basically the same. Quote Link to comment
jluna94 Posted June 6, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2019 I read a guy named mtbmiller installed a gm alternator for his j16 on a 521 but idk which gm alternator and he hasn’t been on this page over 7 years. Quote Link to comment
