 I'm running the one below from Amazon. I modified the mounting stud slightly, but it wasn't a big deal.

 I think this is the same unit. Reliable for a decade so far. No shop conversion necessary. Just connect to the right terminal for single wire operation

 Mike,   Here are a couple photos of the alt. setup on my TR3.  You can get the necessary info from the photos.  I think it's a GM S10 pickup or Geo alt.  I modified the mount that attaches to the block.  It is visible in one of the images.  It is a 60 amp alt. as I have full road going equipment on my TR.  It was not expensive as far as I can remember.  I can provide more info if you need it.    Dave H.   831-234-4928

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?
