alternator swap - for all watercooled's

« on: June 12, 2002, 06:14:36 PM »
...was flipping through the old service manual the other day and i just happened to notice that most watercooled cars that came equiped with a/c have high output alternators on them  , i think the spec was {a/c= 68amps verses the non a/c = 42 amp) but dont hold me true to that :) anyways, this would be an ideal swap for a replacement or for an upgrade to use with large stereo's or extra lighting .

alternator swap - for all watercooled's

Hummm . . . I've got an alternator off of an 86 Golf and if I remember correctly it had air.  I don't have any water-cooled VWs (at the present time) so if anyone needs this alternator, let me know.  I'll let it go cheap to anyone . . . free to Volks Folks members.   :alien:
