Default alternator help!!!

does an alternator from an explorer or any other 5.0 engine fit into a fox body mustang. If so whatis the amprating onthere stock alternator. mine went out and i'm desperate for a new one but i've got an electric fan and i don't think a 75 amp one will cut it. i'm thinking a 140 or maybe a 200 what do you suggest.
