Subject:Re: 100 amp alternator for Vanagon from Jetta?

Yes and no!

Any Golf / Jetta alternator from 1992 and down will fit, you just have to
swap the V-belt cog to make it work.  We do this all the time with our
engine conversion kits going the other direction - 90A Vanagon > Golf
engine.

Subject: 100 amp alternator for vanagon from Jetta?

I read on the internet somewhere that it is possible to install a 100 amp
Jetta alternator into a vanagon which originally has a 55 or 60 amp
alternator.

Is it just a matter of switching a pulley?
Anybody done this with positive results?
