I have a few companies I trust, as alternators are very important and a badly built alt vs a good one makes a big difference.

Where would you all go for a new alternator for a 2.2 ext cab s10 1994.

Im a total of about 4600 watts.

Yea lol

sad enough, i had a deal on a 350 drop when i was doing it, but it was last minute and i didn't have the time or money left over to fall through.

With gas now im glad though only because its a daily, if it wasn't i would have no problem with it.

I have seen many people running excessive but i didn't know if they were worth a shit or not.

dc isn't showing any alts for a 1994 s-10 ext cab 2.2

not a single on for any 2.2 lol

halp :S

This is the only one mechman offers
http://www.mechmanhighoutputalternators.com/shop/categories/Alternators2d-High-Output/Chevrolet-Trucks--Vans/S10-pickup/2.2L-4cyl/942d03/

I would think I need a 300 amp atleast

And btw im researching, and seeing very very bad things about excessive so they are out of the question
Also iraggi got cought in some fraud and is now gone.

So its down to Mechman, and thats about it.

Call DC and talk with kyle or stan they dont have all their products on their site and if they dont they often times can make it like they did mine.

Ok, how much do you think a 270 - 300 amp would cost on a 2.2 94 s10?
If its any more then 480, i would probably just go with the mechman.
