definitely go with motorcraft.. they are kinda pricey, but steve at tousley can get you a deal.

I have sold parts from autozone and orielly both, and warrantied those damn things left and right.

Don't waste your money on a PA! Do a search and you'll find that a lot of people have had PA fail on them in short time. If you want a quality alternator, either buy a new Motorcraft replacement or buy a Start N' Charge alternator. These are the only two I recommend. Start N' Charge would be my first recommendation. Do yourself a favor and call Jamie at (509) 447-0289. You'll be impressed with his technical knowledge of alternators.
