    Who is OEM for the alternator? specifically 1971

    I searched around for alternator information. but did not find definitive answers.

    I am looking to buy an extra alternator, to have on a shelf, for that rainy day.
    for 911T 1971:
    1. who was the OEM manufacturer?
    2. what are the amps, on the alternator, for that car? What amps were available?

    Is there a type to avoid?
    Is there a type, other than OEM, that is recommended?

    thanks, ScottA
    (I do have extra fog lights...but they are LED)

    Current long term ownership: 63 Cab, 71 911, 74 914

    Scott, on my ‘71T, the OEM is Motorola. I don’t know the amps.
