Ron Dame Posted November 5, 2022 Report Share Posted November 5, 2022 Trying to save frustration at the FLAPS. Which Chevy should I name to get the correct alternator, or did all 1980 350's using the same one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildfelr Posted November 5, 2022 Report Share Posted November 5, 2022 RQB3263/81/305 ...I replaced my orig 65 amp with an 85 amp and then 2 yrs later with this 140 AMP alternator pict here .... direct bolt in .... only needed to up size the large red primary wire to the positive on battery ...... It makes enough electrical power all electrical system upgrades I have made and will make in the future.... I believe it was $167 delivered.... ...

Avanti83 Posted November 5, 2022 Report Share Posted November 5, 2022 They should all be the same style but the differences are amp output, drive pulley style and how they are "clocked" to the mount. The two options I would start with are 80 Camaro and the 80 Caprice. The Camaro is the best start as they have a low hood line like the Avanti. Just take the old one with you and the hunt shouldn't be difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pantera928 Posted November 5, 2022 Report Share Posted November 5, 2022 I would stay away from the chain store rebuilt units. I got one from a electrical rebuilder near me for around $75 exchange. 65 amp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
