That's pretty cool what's the part# for that plug ?

I put a 110 amp on mine it was for a different application. Took the parts girl an hour to find it in her books with some cross referencing.

The only thing was I had to change the pulley and rotate the housing to the appropriate indexing. It was pretty simple just remove the 4 long skinny bolts that hold the housings together and rotate the 2 halves to the indexing that you need and then reinstall the bolts. Just don't pull the 2 halves apart or your gonna have fun getting it back together.

Nice upgrade. I went with the cs144 and also swapped the serpentine/v belt pullies of an 85 k10. Best electrical upgrade yet.

The cs 130---144 whats the difference between them higher out put...higher output at idle??

Also if you dont have a dash light you have to get the adapter with the little diode in it they do make two types it will have a black piece of heat shrink in the middle with a little 1/4 bump in it thats the diode. Or put a light bulb in line with it...not sure what it does but you need it

With out a resistor the alternator will be short lived

Can this thread be made a sticky?

So I put this alternator in my truck, its an alt that goes on a 1990 Cadillac Seville, 120 amps. Don't know whether its a CS130 or a CS144.

Bolted right up with minor mods to the brackets. I'm still waiting for my adaptor to come in the mail tomorrow. Hopefully it'll be a big improvement. Before my lights would dim every time I turned on the a/c, my wipers would slow down and after 2-3 minutes of continuous on-time, they would cut out. My power windows take forever to roll up and down etc. Sorry for the rant! Hope this cures everything, I'll know tomorrow.

This is also a good read about the sensing wire location. http://www.madelectrical.com/electricaltech/remotevoltagesensing.shtml

I don't know why they want to route the battery through their junction needlessly lengthening the route to the battery. That just seems stupid to me.
