   Good price Tom.

   If you drove this with a 1 to 1 cog belt drive a very simple outboard motor
   type CD ignition could be easily added by swapping out a couple of coils
   180 degrees apart for 300 volt units.

   Save one for me Tom.

   I'll take one too, where do I send the money?

Looks like these are used or one or more of the coils may have failed.

Here is a new Kubota for $106
Same type of magnet type of alternator. No field winding.

14 amps 3.12 pounds.

Two of these with modified for CD ignition one for top plug and one for bottom plug would give dual independent ignitions and alternators.
One or two cog belts.

There is no regulator inside the unit
so an external regulator will be required as they are designed for low RPM engines. ALTERNATOR REGULATOR 1K531 - 64602

"I'm getting 14.5 volts from 1200 engine rpm with a stock VW pulley, about 6"
diameter, all the way through 3300rpm." No load is mentioned.

I am not sure they will run to 7500 RPM so test them in a safe way because they could blow up. A wrap of carbon or Kevlar uni would be a good idea.

Lots of options here.

Where do we find out about the details? I don't see this listed on the website.
If they are broken or are not fully operational, that should be info up front.

Tom, are these new or used? Are they guaranteed to work?

Paul Lamar

All:

  They are units that have come back for Isuzu warranty consideration. All were on new engines and if the battery is hooked up backwards on installation the regulator will pop. These have the add on regulator that are screwed on the back. They have been tested and match the same ohm readings thru the coils as well as to ground. They test the same as a brand new one. I will warrantee them for 90 days. The external regulator that works on the Kubota, Yanmar and Isuzu will work on this. I am sure Paul can come up with a $10 regulator that will work with it. We also have new take off's that were removed to convert the engine to 24v for $150 that will include the regulator and a mating plug plus a wiring diagram. Without a regulator it weights 4lb and with 4 3/4lb.  I have sold a bunch to the Corvair crowd. If you have any other questions I would be glad to answer them. If Paul would like I will send him one for inspection and test.
