Is this a denso hair pin style stator or a conventional wire wound stator?

It's conventional wire, but it's a 6-phase, 96 pole unit. Same thinking as the Denso Hairpin, just using round wire and a lot of it.

denim: Yes, both monitors were shaking bad. I work at a mid-size engineering firm. Funny story, the structural department all stood up and none of us said a word and we all hustled out of the building, the entire electrical, process, mechanical and piping departments were staring at us.

While the 6 phase stuff sort of makes sense, two stators in a way. The 96 pole stuff is beyond me. Usually when I hear about poles in an alternator it's referring to the "fingers" wrapping around the field coil on the rotor. Typically there are 12 poles/"fingers" on an alternator. Are you saying there are 96 poles on the rotor of this alternator?
How much horsepower does it take to produce this much amperage? To the motor this has got to be the equivalent of churning molasses by hand on a cold day.

You are right, the 6-phase is basically 2 stators in one, if I recall they are phased 6.5 degrees off from the other.
The pole count is the number of passes through the stack. Your typical 32 pole unit is more common, these are the same pole count as the new Denso Hairpin design.
Due to the high pole count, 6-phase design and the efficiency of the unit the load on the engine is typically less than the same output on your more traditional designs.

Okay, I think I get the 96 poles, it's the number of stator wire groups inline with the axis of the alternator?... The reason I ask about the power requirement is I swapped out the CS130 alt out of my olds, in my sig, for a AD244. I cut off the original connector for the CS130 alt and put a AD244 connector with a 5 watt 85 ohm resistor on the "L" terminal. Will this new alternator of yours work in this application?

Right on the pole count.
If you are running an AD244 case like on the F/S GM trucks this will bolt in place. The only concern would be the output stud pointing UP rather than out the back, otherwise it's the same mounting.
