Euro Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 Try looking up a 3800 Bonneville. Rich17 on here did that, but I can't remember what output it was. Was definitely higher than the factory one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White93z34 Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 stock 92-99 H body alternator is 140 or 145 amp I think, I also think its a bolt on for w-bodys but I would not take that to the bank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
l67ss Posted December 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2013 Thing is that I have to use 2000 or newer alternators, there is a bunch o 2000+ bonnes in the NY though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rich17 Posted December 18, 2013 Report Share Posted December 18, 2013 Not sure for the new style braket. I have the older one and a 98-99 9C3 140amp alt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White93z34 Posted December 18, 2013 Report Share Posted December 18, 2013 I think the Bonneville alternator IS the 9c3 one. I have a spare 2000+ bonneville alternator, probably good still would have to dig it out. I'd sell super cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Euro Posted December 19, 2013 Report Share Posted December 19, 2013 Ahh good to know! Joke's on me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
l67ss Posted December 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2013 Went to the jy today to check out the alternators. Foun o the 2000+ ended up being 125 amp on a park avenue(although on the other big cars they had 105 amp). Checked on the alternator on the engine im getting, was listed as possibly having either 102 or 125 amp alts. Said the 125 amp also came on pontiac montanas. How can i find out which one is on my engine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
z34Phoenix Posted December 30, 2013 Report Share Posted December 30, 2013 IIRC the higher amp alt's have a different connector and have an external fan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
