    Default alternater trouble

    So my mechanic rang me up and said that while he was tuning my 86 on the dyno my bolts spiked and that my alternater has crapped itself. I got a spare bigport alternater but my car is running a silvertop 20v does anyone know of the bigport will fit the ST?

    fits but the socket is different, easy to change and I suggest you use a new one (the plug) from an auto elec as they can snap, I had this

    you could be lucky, some 20Vs had the old round plug as well.

    really? well there you go, either way it's a good idea to change the plug while your at it, well I think so anyway after getting stranded once
