i purchased the wiring kit from PA Performance and received it in the mail. I am going to purchase a 95 Mustang 3g alternator today as well. The instructions that came with the wiring kit are pretty clear, but it doesn't state that I will need any other materials in order to complete this swap. Anybody wanna give me any kind of input please? What else is needed besides the alternator and the wiring kit from PA Performance?

edit: i know how to route the wiring, and i know that i will need to do some clearancing to the stock alternator bracket. Just want to know what other materials i will needs besides the wiring kit and the alt. itself.

Good shit [patriot] A dremmel works best for clearancing the bracket. That's what I used.

I wish I had a dremel. I was going at it with that damn hacksaw for a good 45 minutes... [Eek!] the ghetto mexican way
