Zetec Alternator

Post by 10X »

( I posted this on Locost North America but still have not found an alternator.)

If anyone were to tell me I couldn't fine an alternator for my 1.8
Zetec with a Westfield mount I would tell them they were crazy. Well
after looking on and off for the past 6 months I give up. I can find
one in Europe but the ridiculous prices plus $100 freight burns me
up.

Does anyone know where I can find a Lucas LRB00172 alternator or a
cross referenced one below?


ANDRE NIERMANN 02485029, 02485030
BOSCH 0-120-485-029, 0-120-485-030, 0-123-310-014
BOSCH REMAN EUROPE 0-986-036-690
BOSTON AUTO 3220-313, 3220-5071
CARGO 111293
DELCO REMAN (EUROPE) DRA6690, DRA7112
EXPOM ER-436 690, ER-437 110
FORD 92AB-10300-DC, 92AB-10300-DD, 92AB-10300-GC
HC PARTS CA738IR, CA739IR
ISKRA SALES IA 0815, IA 0993
LUCAS ELECTRICAL EUROPE LRB172, LRB173
VALEO SHORT VA417, VA418
WAI 1-2397-01BO, 1-2748-01MM
WOOD AUTO ALT10227, ALT31005


I don't want to fabricate another mount since I already have a $200
Westfield one. This is a brand new car and power train. I want a new alternator that will fit the mount and plug into the existing Westfield wiring harness without any cobbling up of the wiring or the mount.

Thanks to all for any help

10x, I noticed a lot of UK builders use Westfield parts for conversions and other 7-type vehicles. From what I can tell the alternators sourced from donor 1.8 and 2.0 zetec engines are the same. In either case I would try asking over at the usa7s.com forum (if you haven't already) or contact a Caterham dealer. Hope you find one, good luck.

Thanks, I will post this over on USA7’s also. The 1.8 Zetec uses one of the alternators that I have listed. The 2 Liter Zetec’s in the US are completely different in the way they mount the alternator.
