The 8-67140 race alternator from Powermaster is rated at 140 amps of power at highway speeds as well as 80 amps of power at idle. Because of this, Basner told us that the 8-67140 alternator is perfect for any pre-1994 Ford with increased power demands and can be purchased right now from Marken Performance.
“When first built, it (the 8-67140 alternator) was intended to be a good looking polished, one-wire alternator for people building a street rod with a Ford engine,” Bosner said. “With the huge popularity of the Fox body Mustang in the drag racing world, the alternator quickly found it’s way to the strip. Through our tech lines and engineers, we were able to see this trend and begin building these alternators to handle the abuse of racing.” Powermaster builds upgraded alternators to fit in the stock Ford brackets of the 1G and 2G equipped vehicles but use a one wire hookup to avoid the problematic Ford wiring of the time.
Direct-fit 1G and 2G alternator replacement options from Powermaster include the 8-37140, 8-47140, 8-57140 and the 8-67140 series alternators. In order, these refer to chrome, natural, black and polished finishes, as well as regular, street and two race options. Each series also comes with an available pulley, like the v-pulley our Mustang came with originally. With pulleys, the appropriate part numbers are rendered with a 1 as the last digit rather than a zero.
