i happen to have the guts form an Fd alternator laying aorund in storage. does anyone know if it's possible to take those guts and put them in the FC housing and have a working higher output alternator? or could i do it by mixing and matching parts?

Good question. I'm willing to bet it'd not work right if the armature even matched up at all. Best bet I think would to be getting it rewound, or just buying a complete FD alt.

What does one have to do to run an FD alternator on an FC? Id like to do this when I put mine back together.

the FD alternator case is a bit bigger so you probblay can't fit them into the FC case.

the FD alternator is a direct fit, just need to drill press the pulley...connector clip even fits if im correct

It will run fine with only fitment alterations?

yes,actually the FD alternator has a higher output, basically its a better alternator, the FC pulley just needs to be drilled out to fit the FD shaft...
