FB alternator on a 89 T2

just wondering if they are compatible. the T2 i'm getting has a blown alternator and my friend has a alternator from his FB that he will give me. just wondering if there is a way i can get it to work just so i can get the T2 started and check it out

It'll probably fit but be way under powered. get another 89+ TII one.
