Alternator resto
 
Who does a good job restoring GM alternators?

Take it to a local alternator/starter overhauler private business. You can spend some time talking to them and they will usually do a good job for you. I have a good guy near me and he has always been reliable. *Paul*

Can do your core for between 100-125 and a 5 day turaround time usually I believe alt restorers want 250 or so in addition to waiting several weeks or even months , its gotten kind of ridiculous.

Yes it has! You send your alternator and 250 bucks and they cash your check and 2 months later it's I will send it out next week bs. 427 pm me your address and I will send you my alt to do.

I tried what you sugessted and they acted disinterested amd it took forever.
John sr died in Sept of last year and John Jr is getting overwhelmed and that put an xtra load on my guy who started getting all of his custumors. Combined with having surgery it put my guy behind. he said he would get mine done quickly so I have got it worked out. Same old problem people that are good at something are way behind. Probably should have just called him before I went to redneck.

I am with Paul. I have a local guy that has been doing them for years and knows all the correct colored diodes whatever. $90.00 for my camaro and got it back in 2 days. $250.00 for an alternator, $200.00 for a starter, $200.00 for your distributor another couple hundered for your rad cap thats crazy money IMO!
