Re: 34 stock looking alternator
Yes Dave, the center casing is just slightly larger in diameter as compared to original. Other than that, it looks identical to the original generator, including a non operative cutout mounted on top.

Re: 34 stock looking alternator
If you want a 6 volt alternator to charge at idle you need a
24 volt stator and you can use the large stock Ford pulley. I used an adjustable voltage regulator with a small hole in the rear cover plate so I can set the voltage at idle. I made 7 of them for my cars and never had any problems. Once you had an alternator you wouldn't want to go back to a gen. G.M.

Re: 34 stock looking alternator
I have one from Powermaster on my 34 pickup and it works fine. It is a bit bigger in Diamater and I had to make the pulley fit the shaft in order to use the original one. I believe they now have fan pullies available. take the cutout apart and solder the points closed so the juice goes straight thru.

Re: 34 stock looking alternator
It looks like the original, because it is the original except for the center case. There are several photos on their web page (post #2 has a link). I can post a photo of one setting on an engine tomorrow.

Re: 34 stock looking alternator
Here are some photos of a Whitney alternator I current have setting on an engine. It is a late 40s Generator conversion. Whitney will build them like you want them, I wanted the original three wire style. Others have commented on the case being slightly larger in diameter, don't believe that is the case in the ones I have dealt with. Not sure how clear it is in the photos, but the case is slightly smaller in diameter than the original ends. BUT, I have not measured the two side by side.
