Default Corvette Alternators

Anyone know what alternators will work on a factory Corvette mount besides the vette....f-body, truck etc...?

Not having much luck in searching for a definitive answer...

Thanks,

It's a valeo alt. It's a different bolt pattern than most ls alternators. I went thru this myself. You can use the Holley bracket. It's the same bracket but uses a very common alt .(gm truck)

I think the only one that works with the vette mount is the vette alternator. That's one advantage to the holley setup is that it works with the f-body and truck alternators.

Check the C6 "for sale" section on the corvetteforum. Occasionally members upgrade to high output alternators and sell their stock ones.

Yeah, I also have the corvette setup on mine. I thought I was having alternator problems earlier this year and looked at replacement ones. With the cost of them I almost considered switching to the holley bracket with the truck alternator if I had to replace the alternator........
