You want an alternator off an EF falcon (100Amp) or fairmont (110Amp).
both are 1995.
Neither of them bolt 'straight in' but are damn close. Depends on your year model as to how much you have to do.. EG: V-belt or Serpentine.

You can get the plug too, or crimp a couple of regular insulated terminals onto the sierra wires, or make some male to female adapters so you don't have to cut the sierra loom.

It's pretty easy, but no, the sierra plug doesn't fit the falcon alternator.

Doesn't seem to be any worse than any other alternator. They're actually all fine with water, it's mud that kills them.
