The SR does not have a lifetime warranty. However, if you have any issues with it shortly after use, we'll stand behind the product and replace it. As we do with all of our parts!
The one way clutch really just helps with engine deceleration, by preventing belt slip. Honestly it's really minimum and not necessary. Most cars don't use one and they operate perfectly. Tools can be bought to make the pulley swap easier, as you see linked above.

Over time my sub and amp would kill the OEM alternators. I think I ran through 4 of them before I got my act together. Ordered the Pa performance one from American muscle, it showed up within 2 days, and I never had another electrical issue with my car.

Goldenpony,
The black centered pulley on the SR Performance alternator is just a black plastic cover. It covers the pulley bolt and prevents grime from entering. It's just to keep a cleaner look to the alternator after long term use.
Either of SR Performance or PAPerformance alternators will work well for a stock replacement. Technically the SR Performance is an "upgrade" since it's 5amps larger than stock, but a minimum upgrade at that.
Let me know if you have other questions!
