SOHC Posted April 27, 2020 Posted April 27, 2020 I want to find an alternator that would fit inside this generator if I cut the brackets off, 106.5mm is the inside diameter 153mm is the length, they sell a complete conversion but it’s like $1600 NZD, any help would be appreciated. Quote

ThePog Posted April 27, 2020 Posted April 27, 2020 I have one off a Toyota 2y, the body is 105mm diameter ignoring the screws holding it together and some shit hanging off the back. Might work of you got creative with the body clamping. 2 Quote

CUL8R Posted April 27, 2020 Posted April 27, 2020 ^ I run that Toyota one on the stockcar, no issues at all in 5 seasons of racing. I believe its also found on Daihatsu Charade's & Suzuki Alto's, and a Toyota Forklift 2 Quote
