The 130A unit from mid-late`90s GMs looks like it'd be a good choice, provided it'd run cool enough in the Type IV location. They also had a 145A model, but if you don't need gonzo output the 100A might be the wiser choice for longevity.
They're pretty compact considering the output, come with serp-belt multigroove pulleys but a V-belt pulley from an older alternator should fit.

Most pictures were lost in the last STF software update, will try to dig them back up.
Addendum to Newtons first law:
zero vehicles on jackstands, square gets a fresh 090 and 1911, cabby gets a blower.
EZ3.6 Vanagon after that.(mounted, needs everything finished) then Creamsicle.
