Depends on modle and year but I think most of the newer ones don't quite fit.

EL and I think AU do. and I don't think you need to rotate housing.

I just also have to say this.

Don't go over board either. the standard belt is going ot start to be stretched by it's limits and not by the length I'm talkign about it's quite a thin belt.

Plus 90AMPs is all most shoudl need unles your running a rull comp stereo.

The difference with newer alternators and the later Bosch generation. Is the flat amp output. in effect think of them as full power votls and amps at 1000rpm to 6000rpm.
The misubishi units now are the same but the older ones are not. I've seen the stock 70AMP and latter 75AMP one. it jumps up and down. the GD1022 onward is better longer lasting and stronger but was more to do with the higher gearing it had.

plus on turbo models the under bonnet heat did help to kill the regulator on them.

Roth just make sure you use the bosch type with the regualtor/plu/brush unit is a one peice and two screws hold it in. 90% are like that but I've seen some of the new units on the falcons are a ltitle different 3 screws and I don't think they quite run the same. Not sure why I think something to do with computer controlled - (ECU) regualtor like certain 323 model mazda's
