Mine had the C60 (Air Conditioning) and C49 (Defroster, Electric Rear Window) and am pretty sure it had the '2854 alt. (63A), but I can't find if I wrote anything down. The distributor was a '3315 with a Jan. '78 code (04C build vehicle).
If it was used on a non-A/C vehicle, somewhere on the invoice it would show it (K81). |

I'd say highway star has the correct alternator for his car.

The 2485, 2486 and 2854 were used on the W72. (depending on other options)

Sorry I didn't see this until HFR linked this.
Hope you're still around. The 1102486 is probably the alternator for this TA.
