Has anyone ever relocated an alternator on their accord? Like flipped sides on it? I know it sounds crazy I have my reasons for asking so don't flame me right away. Just into exploring options with this car. It's already like legos with the sheer amount of bolt ons available for it. lol

 

I know that I'll probably be of no lasting help, but I firmly believe you'll need to hook up with a fabricator locally if you're going to be successful.

I have never run into this, nor have I seen any threads concerning it.

I wish you luck with your endeavor, but I suspect you'll have as much luck with this as I have had with my wish Honda would offer Performance Crate Motors. Maybe our luck will change.

Yea I doubt it'll happen. Reason why I ask is becuase I have one of those "alternator and ps compatable" turbo manifolds and my alternators keep cooking. I'm likely just going to try and hunt down or have a tubular manifold fabricated to move the snail down away from the alternator. Its causing major powering issues since the electrical output decreases when the heat increases.

Uses a D series alternator.



You are welcome... :O)

 

OMFG that's an answer to my prayers. I will certainly do that when they open up shop for business. Now I just need to find a D series alternator. Question though I read they are ribbed and my belt is six ribbed. Are the pulleys between the alternators swappable? I would imagine they are but I just wanted to confirm. Thanks again and God bless ya.

 

also wouldn't hurt to put a heat shield between the alt and the turbo manifold
