nice..dont have a spare one lying around do you?
I thought the 7m/ 1/2jzs one was around that 70-80amp zone anyway?? hence why i asked on here..But yeah of an xe should be cheap as chips...but they are getting a bit old and well worn by now...being 85 and earlier..

i got a Bsoch internal reg alt from a KE70 and put the guts of an XF into it. i think it is either 60 or 70amp.

the bosch alts often have interchangable guts, but you need to have the same type of diode array and brushes at the back... the late model falcadore alts are all good, just depends if you want the old style (with external fan, and look like old ones) or the new style (with internal fan and are more compact than old style)

they have different requirements for speed tho,
old style 15000rpm max, new style 18000rpm max. new style needs higher revs to kick in tho..

there are some really good tech articles at bosch sites...

but basically if you want amps and are willing to make brackets, then go for anything late model gear which should be getting up to 100A+.. euro cars are even up to 170A and more... but are priced way up there...

Standard alternators from Falcon engines with electronic ignition are only 55amps, points alternators are only 40amps, for pre EA Falcons(pre 1988). You can check original fitment units, they have their rating stamped on the casing, being either "40A" or "55A".
You can find higher output alternators on later model Falcons, not sure if they're stamped liked the early units though?

the EFI XF falcon alternator i got had 24-60A stamped on it, meaning 24amps at idle speed and 60 amps max.
there are carby point, carby EI and EFi versions available, and also EFI 70 and 80A versions, but these had a sligtly different rear casing so i couldn't swap the guts into my KE70 alt.

go to a decent auto electricain and ask to have a look thru their range.. their is bound to be something similar...
Cya, Stewart

ps falcon XF EFI alt bracket spacing is 180mm
KE70 Bosch internal reg alt is 165mm.

engine mount bracket spacing on KE70 alt is 70mm, XF is adjustable and goes up to 80 or 85mm

Lol i will have to make bracing for every other pump anyway! Sad
One for P/s
One for A/c
One for Alternator.
I was going to go to an auto elec to buy one, but thought id try on here first to see if anyone had one?
