What I worry about using any off-the-shelf alternator is the RPMs tolerance...
Most (GM) motors can't rev that high, and I question if the bearings can handle the revs what our motor can regularly produce?
This is one of the reasons why I went with the FD alternator myself.
...although I'm itching to throw my Toyota Cressida 130A unit in my FC just for shits and giggles.
