Owain,
The design standard for Ford alternator, generator, and power steering
(hint) shafts was 0.625 or 5/8" in the 60's - 70's period. That leaves
the lathe work on the pulley to matching offsets for alignment. I ran
a 4" power steering pulley on my alternator for about 30 years in those
days, and never threw a belt. If you can identify the common
connections on the alternator, you should also be able to bring them
outside the case and run a totally external regulator. That
alternator/regulator match and selection however, is definitely more in
Theo's territory.
