Description
High output, uprated to 70amp (from 45 and 55amp) alternator as used on 89 on model Minis.
Will fit most Minis from 1980 until 1996, except some aircon models (requires transferring the old twin belt pulley to new alternator – see below for shaft size if it will match with your old one first) and MPI (twin point injection) that came out mid late 1996 uses GNU2521 which have different belt type and mounting point which is unique to later models.
We guess it took that much juice to drive all those electronics, but now you can load as many extras on as you like.
