Would you mind explaining how to "just slap" one on?  At the very least, 
the old VR has to be gutted and tapped into, since it is also the brush 
holder...

I realize it "can" be done, and is one way to get a good 14.5 volts if 
you need it, but it is not a trivial exercise - and certainly shouldn't 
be necessary when one has bought a fancy alternator touted to overcome 
the voltage/current issues people run into with some of these cars.
