I talked to Z-specialties and their 105amp alternators are early gm style that they convert to one wire. They have a shop rebuild them with new vane and rectifier so the unit self excites at 500rpm and delivers peak output at 2100rpm. They have many of these units functioning in cars that are running high rpms like3500-7000 as well as stop light racers with no failures to date. I went ahead and ordered one I'll post again after I test it in the car.
I have a datsun 70 240z and put in a early gm style 200amp one wire (summit brand) and havnt been very pleased with its perfomance. Last night I did a burnout and it started acting up, lights flickering, radio on/off, lights bright/then dimm. I was wondering if the new msd one wire alternators are going to give me the same kind of performance and can they handle constent 3500-7000rpm racing. Or can I use a non one wire? Or is there a place where I can take a stock 240 altenator case and have the guts changed/rebuilt so I have a plug and play 100amp+ altenator? And yes there is a need for that much altenator.
