Trying to get the Center of gravity as low as possible, plus it gives me plenty of room for the turbo up top.

Sure it only takes about 5 mins to do the swap once you have the alt out. your going to need part # d702se from (http://www.db-starter-alternator.com/). They have them in stock for 19.95. Remove the back cover to the alt there are only 2 screws and one solder point you have to heat up to be able to swap parts. replace with the new one, solder and your done. at that point its a one wire to the battery setup. Super simple to do.
