I was dropping my engine in after a rebuild and the alternator came in contact with a stud, I don’t think it did much besides damage the exterior frame of the alternator, but might have came in contact a little bit with the guts of the alternator. Hard to say. Is my alternator screwed?
I think I'd slacken off the adjuster & turn the pulley by hand, to see if there's any drag (nearly said "resistance" but didn't want to confuse anyone) or unwelcome noises, before firing it up & seeing if it charges..
