Product Description
Mechman S Series Billet 170 Amp Alternator – Black Anodized
Fits 1998-02 Camaro / Firebird and 1996-2004 Silverado Sierra Tahoe Yukon Escalade
The Mechman S Series 170 Amp Billet Alternator delivers serious performance in a compact, durable package. Designed with a 6-phase stator, this unit provides superior output and efficiency while drawing less horsepower per kilowatt than conventional 3-phase alternators. Housed in a black anodized billet aluminum case, it's engineered to thrive in high-RPM and harsh environments, perfect for racing and performance street builds.
It features 12 high-amperage diodes and twin internal rectifier plates to maximize reliability and longevity. Enhanced airflow, along with a seamless rear cover and side output plug and stud, provide cleaner looks and tighter engine bay clearance.
A single wire on the provided pigtail gets connected to any ignition switched 12V+ source to turn the alternator on and off with the ignition switch. Simply run a properly sized positive and ground cable from the alternator to the terminals of the battery and the alternator will work perfectly, regardless of what kind of wiring harness you have.
Proudly Made In the USA, Mechman alternators are known for their quality, performance, and reliability.
