In the hopes of eliminating any more confusion (mine) on this alternator conversion I will try to recap the story here. In hindsight I wish I had done this before when Brian (bjowett) turned the project over to me.
Brian (bjowett) discovered the larger case 130/150 amp alternators would fit in the top stock mount bracket and found that the stock 80 pulley was a direct fit to the shaft keeping the correct alignment of the belts. Further he discovered the wiring was a direct crossover with one pin on the larger alternator not being used on the 80. He was going to have an adjustment bracket made and make it available to other members. For reasons, some months passed and he did not have a bracket. In the meantime I had made the conversion with a bracket I designed and machined up and made Brian aware of this. He felt at that time that it was better if I took over the project so members would have this available to them.
So any questions, comments or thoughts posted in this thread I will realize are addressed to me about the bracket I designed and built, or about carrying this project forward. If I can answer any other questions about the conversion that are within the limits of my knowledge I will be glad to try. As the weather gets better I hope that some of those that have purchased brackets will get their installs done and can post up some pictures, tips, trials and tribulations on how the install went. So far two members that I know of have done the conversion and are up and running.
Some brackets and electrical connectors are still available but I am currently not making any more brackets. If interested PM me.
Thank for your understanding.
