You can move up to a higher output alt. easily. I have a 94 amp alternator. in my 1971 Cutlass Convertible, because I installed electric fans. Its listed for a mid 80's pontiac car I think. The size is the same, it just has the plastic fan on the front. Check out ACDELCO.COM to find the picture & part # than go to your favorite auto parts store and give them the #. The thing to look for is where the wires hook up to your old alternator compared to the mounting bolt locations. It takes alittle time comparing but not that hard. And the really great thing about mine is it cost the same as the lower amp alternator. Also check out MadElectrical.Com for the comparison info. They explain the differences in the wiring hook ups.
