Can you provide info freely about how one goes about supplanting a Delco CS130D 105 amp alt. in place of an old 60 amp 1G alt. There are many regulators available. I understand that the PLIS is for non-computer application. What is the truth about installing 560 ohm resistors, or diodes, etc? Funny how the newest Ford alts. have brush holders similar to the Delco.

nope as long as the 150 amp alternator is the same voltage as the 105 alternator it should work fine.

just make sure the belt can handle the extra power needed to spin the 150 amp alternator at full load.

and make sure the main power cables from your alternator to the battery can handle the extra load
