Default Re: Gen to Alt Conversion - Easy?

I was thinking of using an alternator from a 1965/1966 Mustang (289ci/302ci). It is a "standard" 3-wire hookup with an external voltage regulator. I think the ones I have laying around are all 55 amp alternators.
If you look @ the mounting boss, the ALT ID and AMP should be stamped there, unless it has been through a re-builder. You can (could) buy a kit to pump it up to 100A if needed.
