84 alternator
I did the upgrade for the '84 model using the tech tips and the alternator would not charge despite replacing it twice. I was told that the jumper wire that was used does not go to the proper terminals to make it work. Had to replace it with a stock rebuilt '84 alternator.

I got the 90-95 ZR-1 Alternator here:
Alternator Express
You must get the ac/delco adapter harness to make it work right.
Works great.
