Alternator Questions: 80 vs 120amp/Valeo vs Bosch

Hey all,



This fall my alternator seized up and i ended up picking up a Junk yard one and swapping it in. Easy process and no issues.



My girlfriends e36 has a bad alternator as well and now i have some questions. I haven't pulled hers out yet but I would assume its the same as mine which was an 80amp valeo (Both cars are 95 325is with hers being auto and mine 5sp) Will be pulling in the AM



-Are the Valeo and Bosch alternator pulleys offset differently or can i swap in a Bosch in an originally Valeo application or vice versa? I did some searching and people tend to have a ton of different info.



-Could I swap in a 120amp alternator (if hers is an 80amp) into her car or would it overcharge the battery etc?



Just trying to make things easier when I pick it up in the morning incase its a different brand or amperage. 60$ with a warranty is pretty good for me. Plus I'd rather not deal with a Autozone, O'reilly, Sanel, Advance shit brand or pay top dollar for a reman.
