[Healeys] FW: Voltage Regulator for a BN7

[Charlie Baldwin]

Alan,
I think that you posted that before.  It's way over my head, but just 
looking at it doesn't appear to be the same as Jeffers did it. I don't 
know if that is good or bad.  Alex in Maine feels that he can do better 
than Bob's design, which I welcome anyone to do. There are a lot of cars 
that use the 5 post regulator, and also other regulators can also be 
converted.  I know that Mr. Jeffers did others and would also do 
variations.  He did two for me to use a Bosch generator for a Volvo 
engine swap in an MG TD.  I have a friend with a Morris Minor who got a 
6 volt version from him.
