Has anyone tried this conversion? http://www.gener-nator.com/details.htm
As stated I have one and it has been perfect!

Hey, wait....that gener-nator looks to me to be 0.001 mm in diameter larger than an original!! I hope the "Correction Athorities" do not spot this!!!

Actually, your engine and the entire engine compartment looks great!! I have the same Eddie Meyers setup that is going on a 36LB 21 stud engine that I am getting ready to do now for my 35 coupe

Don Allen is the guy at [email protected] and is a nice guy to do business with. That one wire alternator is the way to go. Thanks to those who like my engine. Here is a shot from the other side!
