Default To those looking for a 130 amp alternator

I bought one off of ebay that was supposed to be a new pull for $75 + shipping. I got it in today and it looked like it was brand new. I put it on in 15 minutes turned the key and was ready to go. the seller is truckandrvsupply. If you do a search for delco 130 amp it will pop up. There is one there now. I am in no way affiliated with them I just thought that I would pass along a good deal when I saw one.

I gave it a real test this morning with the headlights, ac, e fans, and my small system and it passed with flying colors.

So, your 130 held up with the overdrive alt pulley?

I can here my AC bog down when idling. I dont have my fans installed yet. Thas why I got a 200 amp alt.

Yup it sure did and I didn't get any squealing from the belt(the one sent with the pulleys)like I got when I installed the pulley it on the 100amp alt. At idle it stays between the 1st and 2nd tick above the 14 mark with everything on. Before with the stock pulley it would sit halfway between the 14 mark and the large mark to the left of it.

HI there
im glad you like it... i did the same thing few months ago, went to dealer purchased the 130amp alternator and belt for around $350 all i have is electric fans at idle the gauge barely stays in the middle if i have the AC on full blast, lights,and radio on but when i turn the AC fan speed to the number 2 or 3 setting then the gauge will climb back up to the middle i will be adding a small 8" pusher fan to the heat exchanger soon and i know that will kill my idle so im going to try an overdrive alternator pulley its like 35 bucks and if that dont work i will get a powermaster 200amp from summit part# pwm-58202

You also have a 25% slower accessory speed. That 200A will kickass. Fans at full speed, A/C at full speed, underdrive pullies, AND full charge. Nice.
