Sd,Its a nice alt. Very high quality, but its just under 3 bills after tax...about $275 actually.
Ive got mine set up with a cog belt drive, Ive got this madrel coming off the crank and you can just add pulleys to it,which is neat if you have more than one thing to drive off the front.

It looks like this one, has 30 amps at 2500 rpms and way more at 6000, under 7 lbs, internal fan. My alt is spinning 9000 @ 6000 on the motor, no problems so far.
Ill take a pic of my drive set up tomorrow, its a clean set up, and its not that expensive.

Any price on the MSD alt???

[WiredInTX]

The MSD Pro Billet Alternator is available in a 105, 140 and 160 amp output. They have one-wire and direct plug in models. They are finally shipping the 105 and 160 models. The mounting kits are sold seperately depending on what application you are connecting it to. They offer Chevy, Ford and Chrysler Kits and some cool looking pulley's. The alternator is no bigger than a conventional GM/Delco Alternator like you see on most late model GM Cars and Trucks. It is based on the CS121 Delco Alternator. They run about the same as most aftermarket alternators on the market.
