Denso Alternator ????????

Afternnon Guys,

Firstly let me wish you all a Happy Easter! For those of you that have the time off work, get in the garage. For those who don't (like me), im guessing your pining over the time lost,grrrrr.

Anyway back to my question. My current alternator is from a JCB by the looks of things, im after a small compact alternator to replace it.

i have heard that the Denso alternators are the way to go but i have looked on the bay and they seem rather expensive. Does anyone know of any cheap suppliers?

All the best

Alex

look for japanese cars on ebay that other peopl ehaven't learned about yet. i think honda prelude is one of them i think. they certainly look good for a replacement on my car anyway

There's a few different Jap cars that have them, anyting from MX-5's o Micras, Swifts, that sort of thing. Some have difernt mounts and pulleys. Best bet is to get down to scrappies and see what you can find.

Not necessarily expensive. I got a second hand one off the bay a couple of weeks ago for a tenner. There was a new one listed for £60 but as I'm building a locost........

Keep an eye on ebay. I picked up a new Denso alternator from a Kubota tractor for £30.
