Basically made this plate and bolted the H alternator mount to it. Then I used an old trailer hitch part and alternator adjuster and made a simple bracket…don’t look too close at the welds!

Look up Wilson switchDo you have a plan for the glow system? All of the rubbish I've circled below can be deleted if use the HJ45 glow wiring, but you should ensure 10.5V plugs are installed.. If you havent already had the plugs out I'd do that before installing the engine in the vehicle in case something goes wrong..
The circled stuff is "Superglow" related. You could mess about and try and get superglow working, a lot of effort for not much increase in usability etc..

That’s funny @duncanrm I was about to ask what all that was for. I’m not sure how to figure out if they are 10.5 volt? I was planning on using the HJ45 wiring. The Wilson switch is just a pull cable correct? For engine stop? @ceylonfj40nut We have several of those on our Isuzu diesel work trucks. About 25 years ago I found out the hard way. My first diesel. I rolled up to a job and turned off the key and truck kept running. Took me awhile and had to call a diesel shop to figure out how to cut the fuel. So now about 2 of our Isuzu’s have pull cables and I have a cable hanging on shop wall when the next electric shutdown goes out. Actually po already has a stop cable installed in the HJ. It looks like there is an over rich section for really cold starts but hopefully not needed. Just need to figure out if 10.5 v glows I guess? Pretty sure this was a 12v engine but not sure. It didn’t come with any electrical.
Gotcha thanks! Yes the current HJ wiring for glow seems to be working fine. My question is once the glow plugs are out how do I tell what voltage they are? Thanks
Depending on brand.. you might be able to spot it on the external hex portion of the plug.. worth a lookOn most plugs, its stamped on the side.
