    thanks..was also ment add what do people like alan dante or how u spell his name use..

    and how come in walls it slots

    haha you couldnt use aeros in an extreme vehicle unless they were made of steel

    and i see alot of people throwing the "aero port" name around even when they are talking about normal pvc pipes

    there are

    pvc pipe for ports/ pvc flares

    then there are percision ports

    and there still not "aero ports" those are the cheap ones

    as for your question on walls and ports there have been a couple (theres one on this site with bunch jbl subs and aeros but dont remember how long ago i seen this)

    reason why people dont use aeros in walls are the price tag

    sure you need less port area (8-12sh^2 per cube) but to get the amount of port area you need your spending 100's of $ on ports

    where as a slot port is simple and cheap

  22. Pick n Pull Alternator

    I would look for something with alot of stock electrical(Power windows,lights, heated seats, mirrors, v8's) Usually the more electrical a car has the larger the alt. I would just try to find something that will fit and then do a cheap rebuild.

    yeah i was looking online here and found the OEM replacements are 100-105 amps tops so i'm wanting to find somthing bigger

    making a bracket isnt a problem as i have what is needed i just dont know how the plug works on the top of the alt going to computer

    At a pick a part or LKQ or whatever they are called in your city, there is usually only a list of prices of each individual part. I have never seen a list of OEM parts at the jumkyard. I would google your alternator make model of your car and see what compatible alt might fit. Google is your best friend sometimes.

    pick n pull and i checked online for pricing and its 19$ for alt and a 6$ fee for something else

    and i tried looking what type alts would work n only thing i could come up with was the lumina's sister car the monte carlo which is the same 100-105 amps

    another question- are all chevy alts based off same plug? if so i could make a bracket for bigger alt while using same plug?

    looking to replace stock alt in 1997 chevy lumina 3.1 L

    due to it being all gunked up n full of black oil n shit

    so i plan on going to pick n pull tomorrow and grabbing a replacement for 30$ while i save up for HO alt

    so my question is what do you look for when buying scrap yard alternators

    year of vehicle- km- what are the characteristics of a good alt that i should be looking for

    also wondering if i could fit another alt instead of a lumina alt say a large case truck alt??

    to be honest with you i dont know much bout alternators just how to install haha
