[Spridgets] Alternator Project

[uniquelittlecars at yahoo.com]

i could use a smog pulley if some one has one laying around.
A friend is putting air on his car for driving to the Colorado river.
The temps are over 100 there high of the year.
I think he is crazy - but to each there own.

Very neat.  Are you going to swap the water pump pulley for a  pre-smog
pulley?

I just  finished a "generator to alternator" conversion on my 1966
Austin Healey  Sprite. I took pics along the way showing the brackets
I fabricated and  modifications to the alternator and voltage
regulator. I used the VR as a  terminal block.

My philosophy along the way was to make mods to the  alternator and
not make mods to the Sprite - like not shaving away the  mounting
bracket on the water pump to get the belt in proper alignment. So  all
my mods can easily be "undone" if I or a new owner should want to go 
back to a generator. (why?)

I also updated my wiring diagram to  show the new wiring with the
alternator (and relays I added in my last  project). A pic of the
wiring diagram is included.

The pics are at  my Flickr album at the URL below.
