does it matter what kind of alternator i replace my the one i took off my car. i.e is ok to put on the bosch equivalent of my motorola. thanks for the help

I recently replaced the SEV alternator in my 164 with a Bosch unit. The voltage regulator must be compatible and therefore I replaced it with an adjustable unit, comparible with Bosch, from OJ Rallye. Works fine

On my 72 144, I replaced the Motorola alt with a Bosch, and they sold me a Chrysler regulator with it, I suppose because it was less expensive than a Bosch regulator. It worked perfectly fine for years and years. I'm sorry but I can't tell you what the Chrysler reg p/n was, as I no longer own the car. All I know, it was green in color. Big help, aren't I! Keep enquiring at good European parts houses, etc., and someone will know the combo.

whichever kind you buy, you have to match the voltage regulator.

If you want to put in a Bosch, you need a Bosch regulator.
