E Series 400 Amp Gold Billet 96-04 GM Truck

The E Series 400 Amp Gold Billet 96-04 GM Truck alternator is a high-quality and durable alternator that offers great amperage output. This alternator is custom-built to order, with a standard build time of 2-3 weeks. However, if you need an alternator sooner than that, you can contact a sales associate to check if any in-stock options are available.

Installation of this alternator requires some specific notes. It comes equipped with a smaller 1.75 inch diameter alternator pulley, and as a result, it will require a slightly shorter drive belt to ensure proper belt tension. It is not recommended for sustained use above 5,000 RPM engine speed.

The Elite series 400 amp alternator is designed with 6 phase technology, combined with massive twin rectifier assemblies and 12 huge diodes, making it incredibly durable for daily use. This alternator produces 200+ amps at engine idle RPM and 400+ amps at cruising speeds when hot rated. Like most high-output alternators, it comes with a smaller diameter pulley, and in most applications, a 1/2 inch to one-inch shorter than the stock-length belt is needed for proper belt tension.

For installation, it is important to note that this unit may require an additional rectangle to oval adapter harness if the vehicle was originally equipped with the CS144 Heavy duty charging option from the factory, although this is not common. This unit is a direct plug-in for any truck originally equipped with the more common oval-shaped 4 pin plug.

This alternator is compatible with various makes, models, and engine sizes. It can be used with Buick Rainier (5.3L, 2004-2006), Cadillac Escalade (5.7/6.0/6.2, 1999-2004), Chevrolet Full Size Truck (All Gas Engines, 1996-2004), GMC Full Size Truck/Sierra (4.3L, 1996-2004), and many more. The fitment guide provides a comprehensive list of compatible vehicles.

In conclusion, the E Series 400 Amp Gold Billet 96-04 GM Truck alternator offers excellent amperage output and durability at a great price. With its 6 phase technology and massive rectifier assemblies, this alternator is designed for daily use and provides outstanding performance.
