The 3 valve stuff is long gone on this thing.I don't mean to make light of your situation. I distinctly recall the first days of me finding a Mustang forum many years ago (mustangforums.com if I recall), and the most common issue was the alternator going bad. Just made me chuckle because if you're still on the stock alternator you might be the longest running stock alternator in 1st Gen S197 history.
Totally tongue in cheek, that actually sucks and I hope tomorrow goes smoothly.
Pick up a Boss 302 alternator kit and keep this new one as a spare after this weekend. The Boss unit is designed to handle the higher RPM’s. The whole kit is $330 and includes a new tensioner and belt.The 3 valve stuff is long gone on this thing.
I have a gen 2 coyote with a 95 amp boss 302 alternator.
I had to replace it with a 175 amp 2015 Mustang GT alternator because that’s all that was available. More amps means it takes more hp to spin so this will cost me a little bit in parasitic drag but it was this or go home so it’s going to have to do.
Yup that’s exactly what I had. Unfortunately no one had one. I’ll order one from American muscle Monday.Pick up a Boss 302 alternator kit and keep this new one as a spare after this weekend.

Jeeezzzuzz Christ.... what the heck was that little convertible thing doing when you where a going to overtake the white bimmer... did he stop for a selfy??
If you just need the Boss alternator and the rest of the kit is ok, the part number is CR3Z-10346-AYup that’s exactly what I had. Unfortunately no one had one. I’ll order one from American muscle Monday.
I wondered the same thing….Jeeezzzuzz Christ.... what the heck was that little convertible thing doing when you where a going to overtake the white bimmer... did he stop for a selfy??
Must be those new twin motors.If you just need the Boss alternator and the rest of the kit is ok, the part number is CR3Z-10346-A
Ask me how I know... My alternator died today on the way home... I think our two cars are now synced as twins!
