Stock Alternator Amperage Rating

[notladstyle@yahoo.]

I gogled it, I searched the forum, and I've narrowed it down to 90amps to 125 amps.... does anyne know the OFFICIAL rating for stock Grand Prix alternators years 97 - 03




**ALSO** wheres the voltage regulators and how do I change it... I think i fried it earlier. (running at 12.8v at 2000rpm)

Stock IIRC is 105 amp's and the voltage regulator is internal,inside the alternator and looks something like this.You should be running about 14.0 volts @ idle

While I'm not sure I actually killed it, is it replaced separately or together with the alt?

You have to take the alternator apart and it is located inside the rear of the housing.

Here are some instructions that should help you rebuild the alternator.http://www.fourwheeler.com/howto/86978/
