I have a BRAN NEW Bosch Alternator I had as a spare for my ZC now my B16 alternator is Shot.
If I swap the Pulley from the B16 alternator on to the Bosch one will it bolt up properly ?
as far as I could tell only the pulley was different on it.

When my alt. went out, I swapped it for a 5th gen civic alternator, the only difference, is that the pulley(on 5th gen alts.) have 3 teeth on it instead of 2 like my old alt. All i did was put the belt on the 1st 2 teeth and never had a problem since. If your ZC alt. pulley is wider than the b16, it should still work. If its reversed, you can try to swap the pulleys..not sure if it will work though.
