Look for an ad244 out of chevy trucks. 145 amp, you will need a 1 inch longer belt. Do yourself a favor and get a gatorback belt. no squealing

98~06 5.3 or 6.0

can usually find the 145 amps in Tahoes and Suburbans (fully loaded, has a few more electronics than a pickup), Escalades may share them too

mine came out of an 02 Tahoe
