i have a a 2nd gen swap. the alternator is only putting out 11.5v if that. not light is on. i checked with multiple batteries. resistance is fine for the three wires going off of the plug. i took it to a shop and they said it tested at 14v, im not sure what to do. leaning towards a problem like brushes maybe, but not sold on the alternator being the issue. also where is the best place to get an 2nd gen alternator... im leaning towards advance auto.
