Note you will need one of these to fit a Balmar, 10si clone, or other alternator that isn’t a stock Motorola onto an A4:

Moyer sells a couple of them too. What kind of batteries are you charging?

A new Balmar is very expensive and probably not worth putting on an A4. Due to the pulley ratios you are not likely to get more than 50-60 amps out of any alternator you put on there.

Joe, Also a bit of thread creep, but I'm in the process of rebuilding or replacing my alternator on the A4. Does the Balmar fit on the engine without significant modifications?
