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.

Paul
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.

Sammy, hook me up with your local guy, I need to get Ben's alt done. I have a nicely dated 834 for the '69 and have the DG pulley coming in from Ground Up.
