Ford Alternator upgrade
Power Stroke Diesel Alternator Upgrade
High Output Alternator for the Ford 7.3 6.0 6.5 Diesel series |
| In 1999 Ford Motor Company switched
from using the large case 3G alternator on the 7.3L Power Stroke Diesel
to the small case 110 amp 6G series
alternator. After 99 Ford no longer offered the large case alternator
upgrade option for power stroke diesel equipped vehicles. Previously, to
get more charging power for your 7.3, 6.0 or 6.5 diesel your options are either, dual alternators or upgrade
your existing small case alternator. The problem with upgrading your
existing small case
alternator is that they tend to be less reliable when upgraded. Plus with an upgraded version
of the small case 6G alternator you will not get extra power at lower engine speeds,
all the extra power is when you rev the motor.
Quick Start now gives you a third choice with our large case 6G
alternator upgrade that bolts directly into your existing 110 amp small
case bracket. You can't get this large case option from you local auto parts store
or Ford Dealer because Ford
Motor Company did not offer the large case alternator for the Ford 7.3L, 6.0
or 6.5 Power Stroke
Diesel F series truck.
With the large case alternator you will see substantial improvement in
idle or low speed
charging power output plus the large case alternator is much more reliable at higher
outputs compared to the small case unit.
So if you need more charging power or your alternator is getting old and tired
why not upgrade to the superior large case 6G series alternator.
We have the 6G large case alternator in several amperages and duty ratings.
plus, our alternators are brand new and incorporate many original
equipment Ford Motorcraft alternator components when possible. |

Note: The difference
between the Standard Duty and Heavy Duty alternators listed below is in
the amperage rating of the diodes in the bridge rectifier.
Alternators make AC current, then use a Bridge Rectifier with diodes in it
to convert the AC current to DC current for use by the vehicles electrical
system.
The Rectifier is the #1 component to fail in high power demand situations.
The standard duty rectifier uses 40 & 50 amp diodes, the heavy duty
rectifier uses 70 & 80 amp diodes. |
