I have a spare fifth gen alternator and one of my fourth gens (99 I30) needs an alternator, the spare is from a 2001.

my concern is, i know the body and amps are the same mostly, but are the pulleys the same?

thanks!

I hear they're good for about .0001hp increase when used with super unleaded fuel.
