1st gen alternator pully?
Does anyone know if the 1st gen alternator belt pully is the same diameter and fitting as the pully from an FC?

In short terms...are the alternator pully from the FC compatible with the ones from a 1st gen?

I dunno, if you can swap the pully's, but the alternators are swapable. The 2nd and 3rd gen ones also make more ampeg.

Yeah I believe the first gens and second have the same alternators. The FC introduced a new style. You should be able to interchange them.
