One wire alternator converts

One wire alternator converts
For those of you who have made the leap to the one wire GM alternator conversion, does anyone have a year or part number that they used? We have a local U Pull n Pay junk yard and alternators are $22 exchange...just need to know what year range to look at. I have seen reman alternators on cars that got wrecked a few weeks after the alternator was changed out.
Much appreciated!

I've converted several of the GM 10 & 12 SI alternators. I usually pick up a couple of the self excited voltage regulators from the electrical parts vendors at the bigger car shows and like you I look for rebuilt alternators in the salvage yards. I recently picked up a 100 amp 12 SI for 15-20 dollars at my local salvage yard and made the conversion to one wire. Works great.
