Thats about what i was quoted for a new one too

(i thought f##k that) . So i bought one off a guy from work that came off a 93 model falcon (it was basicly brand new) so i took it home and fitted it .
It took me about 3 hrs to fit it coz the 2 bottom holes needed to be a bit bigger and wire up a new plug for the 2 wires to plug into the back of the Alternator . I think my old Alternator was rated @ 70 or 75 amp and the ford one is a 85 amp and it only cost me $80
