I had the same problem with My Pinto.
I went to local scrapper, and ended up using one from a Micra. If you get one from a scrapper, dont forget to get the alternator plug, and the
original bracket. This will help you modify it to fit you application.
Cheers,

I got one off a vitara, think its the same as demon tweeks sell as a small light race alternator for something ridiculous like 180 quid.
I havent fitted it yet but it is much smaller than the lucus one I have.
Cheers

what's the going rate on these?
(I have jap car breakers and keep meaning go go down there for one - might get a few if folks are interested).
I think the nippon denso onbes can be fitted wither side of engine?
they look like this:  and if I do pick some up, the pulley will be for narrow V-belt
(pre-zetec engine I beleive)
