I've run my own repair shop for some time, and I dread when I see the
3.4L engine come into the shop. It's a good running motor, for 100-150k miles... but what a nightmare to work on. Have fun replacing a simple alternator!

Number one, be careful how many NG you cross-post to.

The GM 3800 would be the best choice from the three you have listed.
Other than making the Forbes list of top 10 engines, this small dynamo was created by Buick back in the early '60's, and has been around for
40-odd years. While all engines have their drawbacks, this one has the least amount of problems, and is darn powerful to boot.

As usual, YMMV
