I would recommend contacting your local parts dealer, and ask them if they can point out what other places that alternator is used....I used to work in a parts store and they CAN do it...just need to find someone that will do it for ya....in most cases....the 75amp alt will be on the vehicles with more accessories....the more common one i believe is the 60 amp....75 is considered HD at that point....i would drop the 50 at the junk yard and be done....what is your time worth? I know mine is worth too much to waste alot of time....that is how i look at it....just my .02...
~not meant to offend...but to help...please remember tip the help....we most likely need it~

In the 18 months I worked rebuilding them in Houston, we never had one returned under warranty...[sm=smiley16.gif]

Only about half or less of all Daytona's were turbocharged. Mine being a true Shelby Z with the 2.2L Turbo II and power everything had a higher amperage alternator, I think it was a 115 amp alternator.[sm=smiley24.gif]

RE: help a girl out..
yes i would recommend a good rebuild shop i know they do a great economy job for when we need them and the work is great. Like somebody else said in an earlier post reputation call a dealer or a good local seervice station and see if they can recommend a good one i know we do all the time i feel for the little guy who needs their money and feed off the rich he he he
