[QUOTE="Jimmysidecarr, post: 10118158, member: 11681"] I agree with this. Though so far my Ford alternator replacement is holding up fine. I did slow it down with a 3.2 Metco pulley however. On the Autozone fan, all I can say is that's not really a surprise. Some folks have modded Mark 8 Lincoln fans to work on our cars because they have the most CFM. It is a little involved though since they don't just bolt on. I would change your alt pulley to a 3.2 Metco if you are using a stock lower crank pulley. I would also check to see what the fan kick points are in your tune. It's not likely but it is possible that they may be overly aggressive if they have been reset. Mine were reset and my fan has not dyed yet, but these cars are getting older now and I suspect I will be buying idler, tensioner, and probably an I/C pump before too much longer. There are certain things that you can expect to eventually fail with these cars. [/QUOTE]
