need small alternator

I have very few space left in my striker engine bay, I need an alternator smaller than the present one (standard Ford CVH 1600 alternator).
Can you indicate me a car with a particularly small alternator? alternatively someone selling online (I'm from Italy) custom alternators

The Denso alternators from the Daihatsu Charade, etc. are tiny.

I was going to fit a rover 25 alternator which was quite small.





How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

Toyota Fork Lift alternators are tiny but still give up to 50 Amps - my one only cost £25!
Look for part number 27060-78305-71 - in fact there's one on eBay at the moment here

That is the one I have bolted to my zetec.
Not sure you can make him an offer as he is a trader selling lots of them
(or are you implying a deal outside of ebay, which I am all for )

I got that one as the Micra one was too large, this one is about an inch smaller

I got one of these too but he don't supply the plug, cost another tenner!

Nice and small though

I used spade push on connectors, and then filled it with a hot glue gun just in case.
