Jerry,

I believe that you paid that for it...but it's sad they were sold for that much

It's been a while since I inquired about one of these for a customer of mine but if he didn't return a core then there would be a $100 core charge on that alternator...I think they were $399 when listed plus $100 core. If he didn't return a core then he got a deal at $400 because they didn't charge him a core charge. At the time I checked into them they were also checked and tested by an authorized Lestek repair facility and had a 12 month warranty.

These aren't the easiest things to find if needed especially since Lestek from what I understand is out of business. I personally am not a purist and neither was my customer so he opted for a PA Performance 3G alternator upgrade as it was less expensive. But for the purist or concours show car then you've got to have what came on the car you've got to pay the price for the correct part. Just be thankful it's not an original carb for a Boss 429 or a fender for a '69 Cyclone Spoiler II!!!
