anything for you, my brotherThis pdf doesn't say so, but I'd recommend putting the serpentine belt back on after you install the alternator

Thanks, Joat. I can always count on you to come through. Seems easy enough. I was thinking I had to remove the Intake Manifold to get it out. Glad I won't need to do that.

Did your alternator fail or are you looking for more juice?
