It can be done yes.

Do a search on the US forums you will find how too do it. Its quite common as its a Better Alternator.

I had a S6 Alt on my S5 Vert but it was along time ago so i can\'t remember how i did it.

TBH i can\'t remember seeing that much diffrence over the S5 but if you have one about then it can be done.
