Alternator for non-AC 305 TPI in an iroc

Harder to find than one might think

85 Iroc - 305 TPI - auto, no a/c

is there a delco part number or a recommended alternator for this Non-AC Iroc?

the original stock one on the car seems to be spiking - i assume the internal regulator is hanging open at times as she squeals every now and again and the volt meter is erratic

The absence of AC imposes no special requirements on the alternator. One for an AC car will work just fine.
