If your question is, "will my s10 alternator produce the required voltage for my Hyundai?" the answer is, yes. That said, there's a whole host of other issues involved. Is the mount compatible? Will the pulley swap over? Are the electrical connections compatible? The answers to these question are most likely, no. If you have some skill, materials, and time, have fun. I would probably replace it with an OEM part and avoid any potential problems.
