<DIV>In a recent article in Hot Rod Magazine they were trying to solve an
overheating problem on a car and one of the issues was that at idle the electric
fan was not getting enough juice to spin properly.....and this was with a small
alternator. I never thought this would be an issue. I guess if you don't
have any accessories then it doesn't matter. I just brought it up in the event
that you or other do have an electric fan.</DIV>

AM<BR><BR>Hi All,<BR><BR>In the book Performance Tuning the Tiger there is
mention and a picture of a larger than stock generator pulley which slows the
generator down and makes it happier to be run at higher motor RPM's.
Call me crazy, but I would like to find such a pulley and keep using a
generator for the totally stock look on my higher reving 347 motor. BTW,
my current pulley is about 3.25 inches in diameter. My current generator needs
to be replaced and I have a remanufactured one on order. It comes
without a pulley. So as long as I have to put a pulley on it, I am
thinking if I could find a larger diameter one that would fit, why not?
I know there are alternators now available packaged in a generator looking
style case but I really do not want to go there at the present time. So
does anyone know anything about that larger diameter generator pulley
mentioned in the book? A part number? Maybe it is stock for some
of the other generators back in the day?<BR><BR>Any and all info would be
greatly appreciated, and thanks in
advance.<BR>Gene<BR>_______________________________________________<BR><BR>tigers@autox.team.net<BR><BR>Donate:
