It's 100A, and 4cyl alt will fit yours bolt on, but you may need to swap the alt from multi V to single though.

You need a late alternator, the non-v belt ones. Went to the motor factors a few days ago and was told that. The push 100 amps.

Do you mean multi V cause the single V is the one everyone fits
