If you are replacing the alternator, strongly recommend using only Honda dealer sold remanufactured alternators (probably Denso) or an aftermarket Denso brand remanufactured alternator. Lots of problems reported with other brands.
Alternator wise, I'd definitely spend the money and acquire a nice Bosch unit to replace yours if you were gonna swap it.
If you’re gonna go through the effort of replacing the alternator, do NOT get cheap shit. Get a new/remanufactured Denso alternator.
Denso alternator is my go to choice for that vehicle.
What brand alternator did you use? If not OE, Bosch, or Valeo, change it again.
For my personal vehicles, I replace alternators at 100K with Remy or Denso new alternators and have never had an issue and I save a lot of money by waiting a couple of days.
Nippondenso (Denso) is what I would choose, I believe this is the OEM manufacturer.
I would get Denso
I wasn't crazy with the AC Delco (GM) alternator conversion when I used it on my MGB engine. The Bosch ones seemed to be a little better designed and easier to convert, plus they looked simmilar to the Lucas ones.
We have been having a lot of trouble with Bosch reman alternators and starters in the last couple years. Pretty sad, used to be great stuff. Now all the boxes say made in china and everything is crap.
