2000 Camaro SS Alternator
Well...... my alternator went out. I need to buy a new one anyone knows of a forum sponsor who sells ? or a great website to buy for a decent price?
I can easily run down to my local auto parts store and get one but I rather try here first & support a sponsor or buy from a good suggested website.

if you do a alternator thread search theres a gm truck alt 145 amps (aprox $135) that many posters like. i went with TSP (texas speed) mechman 150 alt aprox $200. cheers. if planning on an under drive pulley someday get an over drive alt pulley (imo).

I would stick with either GM or Powermaster, or a local rebuild shop if you know of a good one. I've never had good luck with the chain auto parts store rebuilds.

I've never had a problem with Advance Auto or Autozone alternators or starters plus they have lifetime warranties. I prefer Autozone simply because they have more stores and they are everywhere, If my alternator dies 5hrs from home I'll have my car towed to the nearest AZ and replace it in there parking lot. I'd also consider using the 145a SUV alternator. If you want the cheapest option check RockAuto $85 or $125 for a 145a one.
