Can anyone give me the physical dimensions and specs of this alternator?
My BDR with a Coyote engine needs a small alternator to fit in limited space. I'm currently using this one: http://performancedistributors.com/product/mini-racing-alternator/
But if the Honda part will fit, I think I might like to switch.

Just for grins I did a bit of web surfing. I found this remanufactured equivalent.

The product dimensions are listed as 7.9 x 6.94 x 6.53 inches and weight of 10 lbs.

I suspect you saw my post a few days ago on alternators.... I found a 160amp version... see my build link below in my signature.

Yup, that's exactly right. The 70A alternator I have now is working just fine, and supplies all the juice I need. But I'm considering adding electric power steering, which can use 20-25A.
