Th 3rd gens had side mount battery terminals standard.

A v8 alt will not drop right in to a v6, the housing is different in regards to where the mounts are.

The symptoms you are describing are more to do with improper wiring or faulty equipment(stereo based), which can be bad connections or cheap amp. Dont use a capacitor EVER, that's just a band-aid and not a fix. Actually creates more safety issues.

Where does you Batt+ power come from? alt? batt terminal? ring connector or direct?
The ground, did you sand down to bare metal to make a good connection? use a ring terminal, or sandwich the wire? radio shack connectors or gold plated?
What brand wire? same gauge wire both power and ground? brand of amplifier? headunit? how far up is the gain?

We need much more info.
