Reason I ask is my camaro is now a carb car. Meaning no computer. So should I just get a 1 wire and be done with it? Or will all the wires still have a impact on how the car charges?

 

I'd say just get the regular alternator called for. I've read several posts here where folks had issue with the 1-wire jobs. They are old old school. The newer designed alternators are much better, are available with fancy chrome and what-not if that's what you're looking at, and plug & play - no need to hack up your existing wiring to make a 1-wire job work.

 

Well, I just bought a replacement at autozone with lifetime warranty so its all good.

 

Your stock alt puts out more already and is independent of the old ECM controls. Use what you've got, dont revert more components to the dinosaur age

 

i hope it lasts for more than a year.......i bought one at an autozone last year and it crapped the bed before the year was up.i found a 108 amp alternator at napa for under 100.00.......... much better keeping up with my fuel pump and msd ignition and other accessories
