I want to buy a brand new Ac Delco one. Not a reman. So what AC Delco part number would i use? When I go to rockauto they are coming up as 105amp ones. Not the 145.

The new AC Delco's are reman from what i was told by my dealer and what I could find online. Its funny cause on my v6 I just bought a Brand New alternator by AC Delco for it. I ended up getting one from a 2003 chevrolet tahoe 145amp from NAPA for the TransAm. It's a brand new one, not remaned. I've never had good luck with reman stuff so i wanted to stay away from it. It has a lifetime warranty on it as well for what that's worth. I don't plan to keep the car long but while I do have it for my mind sake I want it to have the best and be reliable. Wanna do the Big 3 upgrade soon so all the electronic part is finished and taken care of.
