tuff stuff alt, 100 amps... anybody here ?

[Nacho-RT74]

I don't care if chromed, black, polished or natural ( I would go If I do, with natural anyway, or maybe polished )... just want to see it, since all pics I have found are just referential pics

Better if the regular one, not the "one wire" alt, although a one wire alt is really the same regular alt with a mounted on regulator

Please...

I'm trying to discover is the 100 amps alt looks like this:


or like this:



dunno if you note the difference, and is not the pulley

I have the polished 100A on my 572....seems to work fine so far

one wire ? three wires ? ( knowing you a little bit I'm allmost sure one wire LOL )

how does look ? like the one on top, or the one on bottom?

I dunno if you note the diff between front and rear housings they have.

Mine is the 3 wire...i'm using a 70's style electronic voltage regulator. 

It's a "squareback" and i have March billet brackets and a serpentine pulley pressed on the alternator. It puts out lots of juice at idle (1050rpm) for my electric fan and electric fuel pump.

failed my guess LOL

ok... both are squarebacks, but wondering about how it looks. If you see in between both housings, one it has the stator magnet visible like a sandwich with housings... the other one doesn't shows the stator magnet, since is inside the more later kind housing

how does look your one ?

Great! thanks!

[bull]

I've yet to see one of those 100 amp alts that are not chrome.

[Nacho-RT74]

just polished available from Tuff Stuff

[firefighter3931]

Hi Natcho, here are a few pics of my 100A alternator. I'm using a March belt system.


Ron

[Nacho-RT74]

OOOOH YES... EXPOSED STATOR!!!

thanks a lot!

that's then the 7509RCPDP ? right ? or maybe 7509RCPSP if you got initialy single pulley

that would be the alt I would get but V belt, double.



It did come with output specs chart ?

Natcho, i didn't get an output spec sheet, unfortunately. I can tell you that with the Mallory 250 Electric fuel pump, MSD 6AL & the big electric fan it's showing 13.2V at idle as measured on the positive battery terminal. I have an AGM Odyssey battery (1500CCA) and an electronic VR like yours and it seems to work fine.

Ok... I'm contacting to Tuff stuff crew for more specs... they told me 45 amps at iddle, BUT didn't tell me iddle RPMS they spec. I'm wishing 55-60 amps at iddle thinking on around 800 Rpms on engine ( with A/C and geared)

these vendors says for example 45 amps at iddle, setting idddle at 600 Rpms

and that would be nice raising up to 800 RPMs... but pricey

Oh God... If SOMEBODY sells me internals!!!... Quick Start ppl is out of stock

[Nacho-RT74]

If somebody knows about a vendor selling the 7509RCPDP on $120 rate shipped please let me know

This is the best I found and I was allmost ready to check out, but then, found $8 on handling fees going above $130, and I can't proceed

otherwise I could get this but will change the housings myself for the cast ones

but from this vendor
