thanks for the info, one of the application charts has /455 at the end of the listing for 55 or 80 amp alternator, i didn't know if that meant that all 455 went with that rating alt.
here's a like to the 55 amp one if anyone's interested, ends later tonight. date code was a little late for my car anyway.
