83 Trans Am Bolt-On Alternator?

Sup all,
My alternator failed the autozone test and I'm looking for a replacement. The guy at the counter searched for an alternator for my car, but couldn't find one that met the requirements. I want to use the stock mount and have one that's higher amps. My car has A/C, is a V-Belt setup and the max I'm looking to spend is $150. I've searched online, but can't tell if I can use my stock mount. The ones at autozone had different locations or were lower amps. I've looked on Jegs and Summit. Any part numbers will be appreciated.
Thanks!

Your stock one was probably 78 amps.

You can get an 85 amp at Oreilly’s for only $103 (P/N 1866058).

There’s one at Oreilly’s for only $75 but you might have to swap the pulley (P/N 010239).


Happy Racing!

Fog lights are not driving lights. They look dorky. Turn em off slow pokes.

How bout those dorks too scared to drive without headlights on in the daytime!

Re: ALTERNATIVE SOLUTION

Hey, I looked at their website and did not find either one. I don't have an Oreilly's anywhere near me, so going down there would be out of the question. Also, would I be able to find 100+ amp ones?

Just put the PN’s in their search engine.

I just did one minute ago and the alts came up.

If you need 100 amps for that car you’ll probably will have to go custom.
