goto www.aea.com.au and have alook there. Theres an 120amp model with the VAC pump mounted on the rear. From memory they just need a slight grind of the mounting tabs to fit. Also from what has been said on here their pretty cheap.

also have a look at a GU vac pump off a factory turbo to retrofit, then alternator options are endless.

Nice idea but far from a cheap option. As you need a complete front case and some other stuff. And unless the wreckers know the motors stuffed. They aint real keen on pulling them apart.

Where as a 120amp alt with vac pump from AEA can be had for under $400.
