Same original alternator. They are $96.00 rebuilt with new bearings, brushes and natural finish case.

I do have the stamp that the alts had on them when new but I will need to do some digging to find it. Benn about 10 years since I have stamped one.......................

Great question Paul!

Here is the breakdown from the 2nd SAAC Registry

CSX2000 - CSX2070 built with Lucas electrical system generator
CSX2071 - CSX2200 built using Ford generators
CSX2201 - CSX2589 built using Ford alternator and Ford wiring

Cool stuff.....

Thanks Jeff! I appreciate your insight.

Mark, are you stocking them? Please explain the stamp... is that the color thingy?

Do these put out enough energy for a modern performance car's operation?

Finally, will they work with the older cast generator brackets?

Thanks

Yes, the stamp is color keyed and has an engineering number. I gave all of may resto stamps to a friend and will need to check with him to see if it still exists.

I can get the alternators in a few days notice, I usded to stock them but no longer do.

No, they do not fit the generator brackets but repro alternator bracket sets are avialable.

Default 289 Cobra Alternator Bracket and Adjusting Arm

I can provide the correct alternator bracket casting that includes the original logo and the adjusting arm. The alternators that were used on the 289 Cobras also had a large diameter pulley and fan assembly that was pressed onto the alternator shaft rather than being bolted on to it, I can alo provide these but I have very few left. I have also included photos here of the alternator bracket assembly, alternator assembly with large diameter pulley and a couple of views of the correct wiring connector. Prices etc can be found in the items I have for sale on this site.
