Looking into it, I TRIED cross referencing the alternators, there's two differences between two models, one is 3-bolt and one is 2-bolt, can you take the alt out and take photos of it? From there I might be able to help you figure out which one you need.
Also, if you want, you can go to your local autoparts store, have them pull the alts out from back on the following car models:
3970014 350 69-77 Pass, Chevelle, Camaro, Nova, Monte Carlo
3970014 350 69-79 Truck
3970014 350 72 Corvette late '72
Follow that layout and call mechman with a car that cross references with your alt.
GL!
I finally got out there and cleaned the alt with some simple green and I found two numbers:
1102906
7E13-1
1102906 seems to be for a Remy Alternator (63a)
According to a cross reference of what vehicles that fits, your list is spot on.

Shoot me the engine code on here, I might be able to help
sent via pm.
-
I don't know about domestics, but import engine blocks have engine codes on'em, maybe you can source down the engine code and wiki what cars they came out of.
GL!
Yea, I did that a few weeks ago, but I couldn't get it to narrow down enough. The engine basically came from a 70's something Chevy. But it could have been a Camaro, Chevelle, Monte Carlo, or Impala.

Look to see on the alternator you have now if there is a part number or brand or anything that you can use in a google search. I'm still mad for selling my 85 ss almost 10 years ago. That car is the shit.
I did, but I'll look again. My car definitely needs work though, some front end stuff and maybe a new carb. Not to mention it needs body work. I'm sitting on some car stereo equipment I want install, but I figure I'll just get the alternator done before I even go down that road. I've gotten more compliments in that then I ever got in my magnum or charger.

I'll be running around 2500rms max on my best day and I'm looking for an alternator that will accommodate that. The problem, well one problem, that I know of is I don't know what car my 350 engine came out of it to ensure the proper fit.

thanks for this review, its time for me to deaden the hatch of my magnum, along with the bottom floor. I hear a lot of stuff moving back there. But it'll have to wait until I learn how to f'n wrap a box correctly with vinyl. smh.

i've been eyeing that eq.
i used to have a kenwood 5 band that was AMAZING. It seemed to make up for my loss of voltage through the electrical system.

if the hardwood laminate doesn't scratch/chip/peel, theres no reason why it would.....He also could paint the bottom side of the plexi so it just hides the hardwood floor edge. A screw every 4-5 inches or so would probably look nice matching the vents on the sides and the long hinge.
hmmm, my neighbor suggested that to me.
Silicone should do the trick. Another option would be to make a trim ring that goes over the edge of the plexi to hide the seam and you can use a brad nailer to secure the trim ring in place. Easily removable by just popping off the trim ring to swap out windows.
thanks for this. Does anyone have any pictures of a "frame" style plexi window in an application? This seems like the best solution for me.

found a Google Nexus 7" tab, definitely looking into that. It doesn't have a minisd slot though, but I've already found two potential work arounds that would allow you connect a portable hard drive to it, while using the mini usb for charging purposes.

I have two hifonics amp, 1 has been going good for about 1.5 years, the other about 3. My uncle has two, his have been fine for the last 3 months. brz1200 and a brutus elite 4 ch. A girl I know had one, forgot the model, and it died out after a year. The RCA outputs went bad. Got her another one and it's been fine ever since.
The only problem I have with hifonics amps are that they run hot. I don't think they are very efficient. All of the amps everyone I know has are Brutus, except my mids/high amp which is a txi6006.
-
If your box is attached to the frame with bolts it is also covered under insurance
nice to know. Can't you extra sound equipment insurance separately though?
-
hmmm, I'm going to have to check that kindle out.
to the og poster, I take it you don't want to modify your existing bezel, which I understand, but I think you might be happier in the long run to hack do a little bondo/fiberglassing. Just an option.
Now that you know the kindle fits, you can start looking for any tablet with the same dimensions.
-
Epoxy that bish! Unless you plan on removing it in the future.
I would like something I could remove, only because I plan on having a few different windows. They are pretty cheap and I just get frosted vinyl with different designs cut into them.
-
I took 3 pieces of mdf and made a new, stronger, rear hatch floor in my magnum. From there, I covered it with hardwood flooring and cut out a window for plexi in the last piece that folks up and opens for access to the amps. As you can see, there isn't much of a lip for it to sit on. It's about 1/4'. I'm looking for a way to secure the plexi to the wood, where it sits flush (or atleast I want it to). I'd like for screws not to show, but I'm honestly open to any and all ideas. I'm in the process of putting suede on the box, creating a beauty panel for the front and top in black vinyl, and repainting the hole vents as well as the piano hinge.
Any pics that show an example of your suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
-
definitely want to see you with your own show. I know its hard work, but maybe it can get you to the point where you can just hire great talent and run/design stuff. We, well atleast I, need another car show on tv. West Cost is cool, but no show shows enough about the car audio part.
-
sorry to hear about your car being broke in, I've had it happen in the past.
Alarm #1. with a pager.
Bolt your stuff down next time with non-typical screws (as in, no phillips or flat heads). Atleast that way, it'll be a ****** for a thief to get them out. Bolt your box down from the inside if possible.
As for what to buy, these guys should be able to help you with that very easily, that is if you can build your own box, which I can't and don't have the tools to do.
-
love the car. the box is CLEAN too.
-
Love my image dynamics, you can find them on ebay for $125
the only pair i see are 159
-
nice build, as noted, like the battery terminals
-
if you want to talk about systems in a rendezvous, im your guy
yea I saw your thread. Nice door panels. She definitely does not care about this car enough to go through all of that.
-
Honestly, the Brutus amps are hard to beat if you are on a budget
Edit: spelling
that's what I thought....thanks anyway guys.
lmao @ the pic.
-
I was about to post that. Or if you can spend a tad more http://www.sonicelec...BRZ1200.1D.html
Yea, I was thinking of this one. Got my uncle one not too long ago for his sub setup for around $150ish. It's currently pretty loud in her Rendezvous with that the amp she has/had, but she's moving it into a 85 SS Monte Carlo, so I wanted it to work well in that closed off trunk too.
Pics of "lady friend" will not be happening lol.
-
Here we go. Supposing the Hifonics amp in her car is currently bad (about to swap it in my car), I'm looking for amp to power:
3 - 10CVR102 (1200w RMS @ 1.34 ohm)
I'd like something that was at/over 1200w @ 1ohm @ 14volts. The budget is $200 for a new amp (online of course).
