BB alternator conversion to CS or SI type
Has anyone done this conversion on a BB and know of any install or conversion problems that might need to be straightened out by using one of them?
Other than that, if you found a better alternator conversion, I'ld be interested in knowing what you did and why Got any pictures?

Re: BB alternator conversion to CS or SI type
I've done it and it's VERY easy! I will look to see if I still have the pics. Search the froums as it seems I have posted how to before. I will get into my notes today and get it for you. Also check-out krue's FAQ,it's in there.
Good luck......It's VERY EASY! -Lance

AAW sells a kit to do this for less than $20, and comes with all the connectors. I try to keep them in stock but out at the moment. I am having to drop ship one today.

Re: BB alternator conversion to CS or SI type
These guys have some good articles on three-wire externally-regulated alternator conversions:
http://www.madelectrical.com/electri...elcoremy.shtml http://www.madelectrical.com/electri...hreewire.shtml I've done this conversion on two 1968 Pontiacs. It's a simple conversion that yields noticeably better performance. I recommend it. Bob Last edited by Dad's Truck; 10-10-2007 at 01:25 PM. |

Re: BB alternator conversion to CS or SI type
These just plug into your stock harness.
I can ship you one for $25 and PayPal is OK.............. and if you add $10 I will include a headlight buzzer. Last edited by PICKMUP; 10-10-2007 at 04:29 PM. |
