do you realise companies will ALWAYS claim their product to be better, no matter what, right? I highly doubt excessive has even heard of the tiny operation that is Motor City reman, let alone tested one of their units.

Eh the great debate ;)

MCR uses cores from the alts the vehicle comes out of. If someone has a direct blolt in replacement, chances are they are using a buy back core case.

Some alternators are limited due to size. If its a small tight fit its hard to add the needed wiring/componets to make a higher amperage. Could it be done, probably. Could it have more problems that usual, makes logical sense.

MCR is good for a relatively cheap in comparison to other alternator providers like Ohio Gen, Iraggi or Excessive. I will say they are not all that and a bag of chips, but for the money its a wise investment.

I'm friends with the owner
Does that mean you can get me a free HO alt for my truck J? I'll buy something off you if you do :)
