[/ QUOTE ]I have been told I should be looking for an 849 alternator instead of 846.Does anyone know for sure what part # RPO K85 on a 69 Camaro takes.Thanks

That makes more sense to me.
I've only known the 2-1/4" pulley 846 to come on Police pursuit vehicles.

I just received a PM from someone else that said the 69 chassis assembly manual shows 1100846 for a/c cars.Now I am really confused.Not sure what I need.

Probably whatever one you find first.

Is this for a hydraulic lifter 350cid. or 396cid. C-60 Air Conditioned equipped car?
I think that when A/C was ordered on one of those engines,the 61amp #843 was the std. alternator.But when A/C was ordered on one of them,AND an extra higher output alternator was desired,the RPO K-85 #849 63amp got the nod for $5.30 more,onto the C-60 A/C cost.
A Camaro could also have come without A/C,yet still have the K-85 63amp extra output alternator requested seperately,for a $26.35 charge,of which only 114 1969 camaros did.(Not available on the 6cyl. with P/S,302cid. or L-78 engines.)
This is just what I'm reading in the original dealer ordering guides,so someone who has a car similar to yours,should be able to confirm the alternator application for you.
I've not seen an #846 on anything other then Police applications,but that's just me.

Thanks for the info Rick.Mine is 396 with a/c.As only 114 Camaros came with this option the odds of finding another Camaro are pretty slim but I was just told it also came on 1080 69 Chevelles so maybe there is a chance.

[Mr70]

As well as those Chevelles/Elcaminos you mentioned,10,159 US & Canadian assembled 1969 Caprice's & a couple hundred more Novas got a K-85 #849 alternator too.

Well that certainly makes the hunt easier.Now who has one????Thanks Rick
