Your advise are more than welcome!!!!!!!!!!!

If original looks are important (plus the benefit of not having to find/make special brackets, fan belts, etc), but you want the 75A output of a 12V Alternator with simple one wire connection, you might consider a Powergen Alternator. Available for Chev or Ford applications. Great idea, but be warned, these are more expensive than a cheap 2nd hand normal Alternator!

We did installed a 70 Amp. Alternator and I would like to thank all that help us.

On our Militant Mk1 Gun tractor we had the generator blow up and control panel went on fire on way to a show...I put out the fire but kept the engine running until arrival at the show....next morning got a pull start from a matador and got home...replaced the lot with a 24v alternator from a s/h volvo truck...no more problems regards malcolm
