gents, this is part of the continuing story of getting my engine back in the car, ive purchased a gear reduction starter and now wish to switch to an altenater, my questions are as follows, what type/make altenater and bracket is being used? is one better then another? who sells them? thanks, anthony 7777. /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/savewave.gif
 
Hi Anthony,

Go to the North Texas Austin Healey Club (NTAHC) website. Don Lenschow makes a bracket kit for the conversion.
 
I think you are thinking of Michael Lempert for the pumpkin conversion. I got one and really like it.
 
Hi Anthony,
Hendrix Wire Wheel sells a kit also. I think it may be Don's since he wrote the instructions on HWW the site. I bought the basic kit and an alternator locally.
 
Re: buying an alternator?

Guys, thanks very helpfull, gregw, ill probably go the route you did buying the brackets etc. and purchasing the alt. locally. those brackets arent anything special that i/we couldnt make ourselves but for the time it takes its worth just buying them. /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/thankyousign.gif
 
Anthony, Go to Texas.
North Texas, that is.
 
But now with Jet Lag.
