Are you a woman? Make your own decision. If you've never heard of the brand it's usually safer to stay away from it.

Nice reply there, my friend.

Well, it turns out that Remy is owned by Delco. So they are actually OEM remanufacturer for some American cars.

The other thing I am wondering about is rebuilding the old alternator myself. If the windings are good, it should just be a bearing and the diodes?

My recommendation is to go with Bosch. Original equipment is always best. The post by lovedumpster was offensive and should be deleted by the moderator. Finding and replacing diodes is generally not an easy job as most diodes are pressed into a heat sink.
