Re: Generator to Alternator Conversion

This is a pretty easy conversion. The "one wire" alternators are easy too hook-up. But if you have a Clipper with just a "Gen" light, then I recommend you get a 3 wire one, to keep the gen light working.

You will need to fabricate a new lower bracket, but you maybe able to reuse the top bracket with a spacer. I did this conversion on my '54. See my project blog for more info.

I would look for a GM 10SI style alternator from virtually any 70's GM vehicle.
