SILVER Star
Intermittent charging issues, battery tests good and most of the time the alt is generating ~14.5V at the B post. Other times it's dropping below 12V, but not very often (yet). I was planning to have the alt rebuilt, and already bought a new VR. But after reading a few threads here I realized my setup isn't normal - the VR's at 2:00 - lots of heat over there which can't be good.
Now I'm thinking it's better to find a reman with the VR at 10:00. If I go that route will I encounter issues with the bracket position and belt length, or should it be a relatively straightforward fit? I would rather not get into replacing the belt because what's there is in good shape.
Here's the current setup
