Kranny Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 where is this 270a alt from. usually its just plug and play. a few cars need other special modules for their cars to not throw out error codes etc, but you should be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev. Wrath Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 If it comes with a pully, use the one it comes with. Most of the time the factory belt will fit unless the new pully is wicked small, but if your belt is old, it might be a good idea to replace it while you have it off. The only other thing I would do is the big 3 so you can utilize the alt to it's full potential. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChevyBoy95 Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 most fit with the factory plug and belt, so no switching out there unless like said the alternator comes with its own belt, then use that one. They bolt right into stock location with the OEM bolts.
