Alternator installation timing

[Dale C.]

I have a 68 L36 with single piont ign. and A/C that calls for a 1100750 61 amp alt. Problem is, its hard to find correct alt. with a probable date code. I found one with a stamp of 8 C 5, so with a March 8th trim tag, that gives only 4 days between dates. It is a Tues to a Fri. and they did hot shot some parts to St Louis but is it possible? Also the guy wants a bit much for a no fan and 20 yrs off the shelf rebuilt, $350. Wow.

Priced unrestored 1100882s or 1100884s lately? If you can find one. Does this work for you:

I guess the price is not so much the issue as is the date to build tag date. I think the alt that I am replacing is rather rare 100696 42 amp 8 C 23 and can recover the cost of the 110750.

So, the eBay 1100750 January 16 alternator is of no use to you?

Scott, I didn't see it. I'll take another look. That was a 1966 Jan 16th 750 alt. I need a Jan 68 750. I guess I'll just keep looking. Thanks though.

Given the cost of these things, I'd wait for one with a date that's a better fit. One will come along.

Re: Alternator installation timing

Dale, my apologies. I've been on this computer so long today I'm not paying attention. For some reason I fixated on '66. I'll check a Corvette alternator rebuild/restore source in Dallas and give them the information to see if they have any you need.

Re: Alternator installation timing

Dale, the alternator rebuild/restore place in Dallas, American Armature (relicreviver on eBay), says that they have a 7H14 and then skips to 8D25. Nothing in between yet. Will keep an eye out.
