Default Correct Alternator Date

I need to find a correct model / date code DELCO Alternator for my 73 SB with AC, built the first week of Nov. The current alternator is dated 1975, so it must have been a service replacement. Thanks in advance.

Per the listing from Willcox, the car came with the 61 Amp 1100544, since it has factory AC. Thanks

I have a 1100544 alternator dated June 4 1972 if interested. Works perfectly.

Isn't 254, May 4, '72? Unless I'm misinterpreting the code. If it's May 4, and the OP isn't interested, I am! You can PM me if you are wanting it to go to a new home.

The date code is 2F4. Which I believe is June 4th of 72.


Thanks

Thanks for the clarification! I thought it should have a letter for the month but that sure looked like a 5 to me.
