Pretty far from stock considering it has ground down case lugs and a totally different plug system from the stock "push pin" style connector. That's just a later alternator sold to people who don't know better for a silly amount of money. I picked up the 143A version of that alternator a few months ago for $30 shipped to my house and running perfectly in my 350SD.
