My alternator on my 71 went south yesterday and I replaced it with another SI type alternator as was on the car. My question is what happens when you have an internally regulated alternator and still have the external regulator hooked up. I found that a previous owner had done this and its been working since I bought the car. I am aware of the Tech article on the conversion (cut and splice) but if this will work no need to cut off the plug and do the splice job. Especially if I decide to go all original again some day. Input any one?
Also any listers sell the rubber boot that covers the wire that goes to the battery terminal on the back of the alternator? I don't want to buy a little part and get hosed on shipping and handling from one of the big resto. places. I know it's a GM part I just don't have the part number to get it locally. ----------------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe please visit www.chevelles.net/list.html To start a new topic, send mail to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
