Default Re: Best alternator conversion for my '41

I used an alternator that is disguised to look like a generator. It will not fool a trained eye, but it looks better than a modern silver bodied alternator. It is a Powermaster powergen. Below is their information on it.


If you like traditional looks and reliable, modern performance, you’ll love this cool Flathead alternator. It has the look of an original generator, but is really a 12-volt, negative-ground alternator that produces 60 amps at idle and 75 amps going down the road. This model is designed to fit 1949-1953 Ford & Mercury Cars and 1948-1953 Ford Trucks with Flathead V8s and features a simple one-wire hookup.
We offer it in black painted or polished aluminum, and both include stock-appearing mounting brackets (the stock fan carrier bolts to that bracket) and pulleys that accept wide 5/8” belts.
· Easy one-wire hookup
· 5/8" wide belt pulley included
· If using 3/8" wide belt, order pulley # 91067178
· Uses stock-appearing bracket and fan carrier bolts
