I'm looking for a cheap and easy to find replacement, so heres the question. Will a mk2 gasser 90amp alt mount to a na 1.6 with ac? thx in advance

Come on, somebody has to know.
my guess is that if it would fit, there could be slight belt slippage.

That and the fact that the pulley is slightly taller, throwing off belt alignment,...
Change the pulley, probably bolt right in.
Chances are that this gasser replacement alt will not have that magic 'W' terminal; so you'lose some facilities..gear change light, glowplug rpm based off, cruise control? easy install tacho....
Read somewhere 'W' terminal could be created by a soldered wire into circuitry?
Not sure where to hook it, but it can be done. I have a GMC truck (15si delco alternator) with this mod, running a perkins in the truck. An alternator is an alternator, they all work the same.
