TR6 76 TR6 Alternator

Brand new Lucas alternator. 72 amp used on some BMW Mini's and Perkins diesel's.
Has worked great for me for several years but I do know someone that had a less happy experience. I used it in original form and he had it changed for the later smog pump mounts.

On our trip last summer I tested a 105 amp Saturn alternator on the TR6 that is now on my Midget. It also worked great. For the Midget the bottom bolt was difficult to get at so I drilled the bolt head and into the case then installed a spring pin to keep the bolt from turning.
 
I think that Saturn unit is the one a lot of big motor Wedge owners use
