If you want a true readily available alternator then hop on down to your auto parts store and pick up a Delco alternator. You will need to make two small modifications to the Delorean. One you will be splicing a new "pigtail" harness to the Delorean harness and IMHO it's alot better then the one the Delorean one has now. The second is you will need to make a modification to the mounting bracket that is bolted to the passenger side Head of the engine. After doing this you'll never need to worry about your alternator going. If it goes just head down to your auto shop, plop the old on the counter, get a replacement and install it the very same day. If you get the other bolt on alternators then when it goes you'll be removing it..sending it out to be rebuilt and waiting a few days to get it back...that would suck if you were out of town. If you're interested I have full instructions with pictures and the model number of the alternator available. Email me privately and I'll send all the info.
