I have converted a Delco Alternator to tach drive. It also has the
correct diameter shaft to take a TC pulley, which I have made in China.
There is a little work to mount it on the XPAG engine , but it fits over
the hood. I got the idea from a MGer in Canada and it works very good
with 65 amps or 95 amp outputs. I charge $250 for the kit which includes
the pulley and connectors. You do not have to change or add any wires.
Let me know if you are interested or I can send you all the instructions
to do it yourself.
Jerry
