Which motor? The v6 cars are fairly simple, the alternator is on the top, but the quad cars its below the intake and will take a little stretching to get to all the bolts. I can do a quad alternator now in about 45 minutes, but the first one I did took about 2 hours, had to find the bolts and figure out how to wiggle it out of the engine compartment.
