Consider using the Bosch alternator for a 1980 Ford Fiesta.  Very little 
modification and the plug fits right in from the Lucas, at least it did for my 
TR250.  The only modifications were a shorter fan belt and some shaving of the 
alternator mounting bracket to allow for clearance of the alternator fan.

Hi List...

I am ready to replace the tired old not quite working properly lucas alternator 
with a GM alternator and thanks to Dan Masters and the VTR website, I am 
comfortable about the electrical part of the installation.  While I am 
confident I can fit the alternator in I was wondering if anyone knew of any 
good pics of the GM alt. on the car so I could get a good idea of what 
modifications I needed to make.  No need to reinvent the wheel.  Thanks in 
advance for any help.
