Hello All-

Just a quick note that I was successful in converting the stock RX-7
80Amp alternator from internally regulated to externally regulated. At
least I think I was successful -- some quick bench testing was positive
& resulted in the expected behavior.  I will not have conclusive results
until I fire up the engine for the first time & stick an ammeter on the
shunt.

In any case, I got good instructions from a builder on the Aeroelectric
list on how to do this.  It took all of 15 minutes - a very easy
modification to make.  Let me know if you are interested in this
procedure & I will pass along the relevant instructions.

Morning, Mark...

And, a Happy New Year!  (Also to everyone else on the list...also my son
who will be 36 tomorrow!  Don't know how that can be...I only feel 30!
<VBG>)

I've been waiting, thinking you were going to post these on the
list...but, I just thought that maybe you are sending them to those who
ask...

So, anyway, I'm asking!

Thanks in advance,

Mark has not sent it to anyone as far as I know. As soon as he sends it to me
I will post it.
