Im looking into upgrading to a higher output alternator for my 2007 5.7 and know that a 220 amp is a option for 4th gen trucks from factory but does anyone know if it was for the 3rd gen hemi's? Or if a 4th gen one will be direct fit onto mine with zero modifications needed, im guessing no?
I ask because if its a factory option i can get it at a great discount, but anything aftermarket i have to pay full price. Tried to google but couldnt find much info

If the mounts are the same, then it will be a direct swap.

Im guessing it must not have been a option because nowhere online that deals in factory or factory replacement parts carries anything for 3rd gen alternators other then the 136 or 160 like i have.

Highest factory rated alternator for 3rd generation 5.7's is 160a. The 4th gen 220a will most likely not bolt on since the accessory drives are different.
