Alternator Pulley

I've had a squeak coming from my alternator pulley for some time now, and I finally decided to replace it. Problem is I haven't been able to find a part number for it. Does anyone have the part number for the stock alternator pulley?

Also if one isn't available, does ASP make a stock sized alternator pulley that'll work the same as stock? I don't want an UD/OD alternator pulley, just a stock working alternator pulley.

Any help would be appreciated.

I don't see how the altenator pulley could squeel. The pulleyis held onto the shaft by a nut. If a squeeling sound is coming from the altenator, then it's probably the altenator going out.

It could be the idler pulley above it. They are known for going out as well. I would suggest getting a dealer pulley, if it is the problem. I went through 3 Autozone pulleys before I went to the dealer. I haven't had a problem since.

If it is the altenator pulley for sure, pm me your info and I'll send you my stock pulley. I have a 160amp alt. and an overdrive pulley. So I don't need the stock one.

Thanks for the advice. I already had in mind to replace the idler pulley, the tensioner pulley, and the alternator pulley, with GM parts. I'm sure it's the alternator pulley, because when my belt went out, I spun it by hand and it woud squeak with every turn. I'll PM you right now.
