I've had a small one wire drag alternator on our TR3 for endless years.
Well, it has failed and even an old school generator shop near by cant get =
parts to fix it.
Worse yet, he cant figure out what it was originally used on to try and get=
 a new/rebuilt one.
This one has mounting holes roughly 6" apart and whose mounting ears are =
very nearly flush with one another
It is barely 4' from the front casting to the back of the back plate.

Is there anyone else using a small alternator that has internal regulation =
they could recommend I look for?

Mike Jackson
