Hi everyone,
        Has anyone successfully driven any accessories like alternator, water
pump, or vacuum pump off of the ring gear on the 13B?  Someone should
design a starter that doubles as an alternator after ignition.  I imagine
the flex plate was not designed for loads and the gear may be unsuitable
for constant use.
