the gm one wire is what seth is running on his toyota i think his is a 100 amp or something like that. but he had to modify/make a bracket to make it fit. and with that alternator its gonna be a snug fit around the radiator hose. im just running a stock one on my bucket so the PN wont do you much good.

100 Amp GM 1-wire, chrome, $89 shipped. Its a little snug, but it doesnt hit anything, and it looks nice. You can see the bracketry here.

For what its worth on the use of 1 wire alternators, they are nice and do have an advantage, easy to hook up, BUT!! they also have some disadvantages, no dash idiot light, and no voltage sensing. The 1 wire works great as a battery charger, it puts a constant voltage to the battery and on a rig that has no real electrical draws work fine, in the real world with headlights, wipers, heaters, stereo's amps, even compressors to air your bags up, and using some or all at times the 1 wire with no voltage sensing has no way to tell the load generated from the accessories so it goes its sweet way and puts out the same supply regardless of demand.
Most 1 wire alts can be wired as a 3 wire and with a little extra work and a few more connections you can retain your dash idiot light and also have voltage sensing to let the alt know whats going on so it can regulate like they normally do.

My 1 wire has a plug in the back for the standard 3 wire plug too.
