    I asked for a 1993 Mustang alternator, 5.0. It came out to a 130 amp.

    I am having issues with mounting it on a serpentine setup, so check out that thread first unless you are just swapping it out on the stock setup.

    O'Reilly part number was Ultima 01-0205

    they cost way to much at the store you are beter off buying a 100 amp one wire alternator

    or you can go to the local pick-n-pull and buy one there for $25 bucks and take it to kragen/autozone and have it tested to see if it works if not then you can take it back and get another one

    The mav is gone but i'm still here!
    I got mine almost brand new at the junkyard for $10. It was an Autozone motorcraft piece.

    It still has the sticker with the part number which is: 7761-5-7
    i checked the price and its $135.99 w/core swap.

    So yeah either try getting one off of ebay, or the 100amp one.
