[QUOTE=hgerhardt;4580633]Don't see why not. See pics below.
OK, lucky for you it's my day off... As you can see below, the offsets and shaft lengths of old vs. new alternators are interchangeable. Here's a 10DN and a CS130. The multi-groove pulley is actually from the CS144 that's installed in my GTO. See my earlier photo above. The height of the shaft step where the pulley sits against is within 1/16" on both alternators, well within belt alignment tolerances.
Wow, lots of detail here thanks. In this photo you show where the edge of the belt will ride and it appears to be about 3/4" away from the face of the alternator. In order to line up with the power steering it needs to be about 1/2" further out at 1-1/4. Thats how far the edge of the belt is from the face of the alt in my set up. I happen to have that same pulley and tried it. Its just too shallow. The VW pulley is kind of like a deep well where the nut is way inside the hole.
Im not working sunday, I will take some pics to show ya what I mean. Its kind of hard to explain it.
The only other way I saw was to modify the alternator itself or the brackets but then buying parts would be a nightmare.
