Our original 120 amp alternator for 86-87 Buick Regal are rebuilt with all New Internal Parts and Our Stamped Part #1101 349 120A on the Housing, Pre-tested with Manufacturer's Limited Lifetime Warranty. Our research has shown that very few companies offer a 100% brand new, correct-appearing 120 amp alternator for the 1986-1987 Turbo Regals and 1989 Turbo Trans Ams. According to GM, the 120 amp alternator was only offered on those models during those years. Working closely with a local source, we can assure quality control. Each alternator is hand assembled, pre-tested and comes with a Manufacturer's Limited Lifetime Warranty.
Most of the other alternators we have found use a generic pulley, which is not the correct diameter to maintain proper tension on the serpentine belt. We have also found that most do not have a black pulley. The stator section, which is sandwiched between the front and rear housing, is supposed to be black like the pulley. The stator on these new alternators are black, like the originals. The pulley itself is used, but is factory original so it has the proper diameter and grooves so the tensioner stays within the proper specs. All of the other external parts (including the housing) and internal parts are brand new. An original 1987 Turbo Regal housing is used, which is stamped with the Part #1101 349 120A.
The top two photos in Photo 1 show an original 1987 Turbo Regal alternator removed from a car we dismantled. The top right is a close up showing the date code of 5187 on the second line. The lower two photos show the same alternator completely rebuilt. The lower right photo verifies the identical date code of 5187, showing you the quality you can expect from our rebuilds.
Original stamped housings are very limited. The date codes we currently have available mostly run from the 4th month (April) until the 11th month (November). In order to determine approximately what month you need to order, you will need to determine the date your car was built. The last photo shows a typical driver's door label providing the date the car was built. You would want to pick a date code that was 1-2 months prior to the built date of your car to be original. Remember, our supply of these original housings is very limited. No core is required, so you can retain the original alternator. Call our office - 215-766-1611 - to check availability, or to send in your alternator core for a faster turn around using your original alternator. You can also call to check of a unit with the month you need stamped on the original housing. Since each alternator is pre-tested, you can be assured it is producing a minimum of 120 amps. The proper amps and charging is a critical function to assure the electronics are getting the proper volts to the complete electrical system. Some of you may be running additional fuel pumps and this makes this even more important. An excellent replacement for any engine restoration. Call 215 766 1611 for shipping address to send your original alternator for rebuild
