My vx Commodores alternator is not working, car won't start without jumper leads, let it charge, turn it off and try starting it again and it doesn't work.
Can I put a vS alternator in or are they different?

You need the correct alternator, plugs in rear change, mount is altered and pulley dia I believe is different, make sure that the main pos cable has not arched out as this is a common problem on these, it will look black and over heated if it is faulty.
