Alternator #1100882 Correct??

[Ned T.]

Ive read the Judging Guide and it looks like the 1100882 is correct for a 69 400 with T. I. Am I reading it correctly or is it for the L88 or L89 only? The note says "these may have been used on any car requiring a 61 amp alternator (those with air conditioning or TI )

It's just like it says---the 1100882 could have been used for any 61 amp application. However, my expectation is that the '882' was only used later in the 1969 model year. I'm not sure of that, though.

Pat, I had no idea how expensive these 882 alternators were, until I saw this one on eBay (auction 190297652474 ). Check out the buy-it-now price.

Well, that one is out of my price range already, let alone the buy it now price. Looks like I might have to go for a replacement one. Mine has the following identification and I dont think it has anything to do with a Corvette

1100 111 63 A

Apparently, they were used earlier than I thought. I always thought that the '882' and '884' alternators were, basically, 1970 model year pieces that were used on later 1969's.

Your right: it's got nothing to do with a Corvette. The GM #1100111 alternator is a 63 amp unit originally used on 1980 Oldsmobiles and 1980-82 Buicks. Given its date of July 9, 1981, it was likely originally installed on a very early 1982 Buick.

Joe - mine is dated October 25, 1968 (8K25). I'm quite certain it's not a restamp since I purchased it from a very reliable source.

Ridge - the person on eBay would love for someone to click "Buy It Now", but that's just not going to happen.

Ned - your question about what a restored one is worth is obviously tied to market conditions, demand, etc. But I would guess $1-$2K. Watch the one on eBay, that should give you a good idea.

Re: Alternator #1100882 Correct??

Good Morning Ned. In addition to the info here, there are several posts withs LOTS of info in the archives. Just search on the part number (1100882 etc). I found my information in the 1969 service manual. Good luck...joe

Re: Alternator #1100882 Correct??

The #1100882 alternator according to the Corvette Black Book was not used for the 1970 Corvettes.

The alternator use listed in the Corvette Black Book for 1970 is only 3. For 1969 5 are listed.

#1100825 is listed for 1969 for ac and/or ig.
#1100884 is listed for 1969 for ig and uu (uncertian usage)
#1100882 is listed only for the 427ci, 430hp,435hp, ig

(ig=transistor ignition)

Beware of restamps. At the price these are selling for, the stampers are busy

I'm "all wet" on the statement I made about the '882' being used only late in the model year. As a matter of fact, I confirmed quite some time ago that a friend of mine with an original owner, very early 69 has an '882' on his car. Also, I have an '882' which is dated very early in the 1969 model year (i.e. 1968). So, where I "come off" saying that the '882' is only a late 1969 alternator, I do not know. I think, though, that where it comes from is that this is an old "notion" that I once held and it's so firmly "rooted" that even after I prove that the '882's' were used early in the model year, I forget about that and go back to the original false notion.
