    When you receive one could you give me the model number so I can
    track them down
    from over here in Japan. I have been looking for something like this
    for a
    non rotary application.


    Thanks

    He is not on the list Doug. Virg forwarded it.

Looks just about like the 40 amp I bought new for $140. It would make a
good backup alternator.  So- what would be the smallest alternator that
would be suitable for EFI? I've got Tracy's EMU and EC2, two fuel pumps,
Xcom radio, Led position lights( ~1 amp) 60 watt strobes, and 2   21
amp/hour batteries.

I don't know. What do the HP fuel pumps draw? As I recall about
20 amps each. The EFI itself is not all that much.
I would say less than 5 amps. We went through all this
about 5 years ago.

They are available in increments all the way up to 100a,
and at that amperage, run about $140.
