Excessive Amperage has good prices. I'd stay away from ebay alts, they just don't seem like a very reliable option.

yeah. ebay is kinda sketchy. this is a stupid q. but is there any way to use a different model of alt like made for a ford or gmc as long as it'll fit under the hood?

In some cases, alts from other makes/models can be made to fit. But it will more likely than not, not be worth the effort as not much will "drop in"

dcpower engineering, excessive amperage, mike singer, nations alts, powerbastard (even though i doubt they'll have one for you), ohio generators (same thing as powerbastards for application), and thats all i can name off the top of my head. and dont ask for a link, cause you can easily google these places yourself.
