An adjustable attachment alternator for motor vehicles is comprised of a rotor, a stator, a stator housing for clamping a stator between two end frames, and a variety of separately formed mounting ears for securing the alternator to an engine. To secure the alternator to a particular engine the alternator is configured by attaching particular mounting ears to particular locations on the periphery of the housing end frames by means of fasteners. The housing end frames have a plurality of frame attachment holes to accommodate the mating of the various mounting ears. The variety of mounting ears having one or more mounting ear holes for securing the alternator to an engine, also have a plurality of mounting ear attachment holes for attachment to the periphery of the end frames by means of fasteners. With separately formed mounting ears, an alternator's configuration is completed in the final assembly operation when mounting ears are attached. A relatively easy change in the final assembly operation results in a new alternator configuration, which can reduce costs. Providing an alpha/numeric identification system on the components can facilitate final assembly.
