Diesel alternator conversions
Looking for alternate alternators
Tired of replacing voltage regulators in the summer for my customers. Looking to up the amps to the 65 range. Has anyone successfully converted to a delco or similar, seemingly bullet-proof alternator? My knuckles can't handle all these less-than adequate bosch alternator die-offs. I've thought about using volkswagen alternators, but the casings are significantly larger, and wont fit between the frame rail and the block. But then again, maybe I can just use the 65 amp vr's from the vw alternator in the benz alternator? hmm... help?
