Ok so I've been working on and off all week on my conversion project. I finished the bracket today, got it all mounted up but I can't see how it is supposed to fit under the hood w/o touching. I've got it setup so i have an 1/8 inch all around it but when the tractor runs it the sheet metal will be hitting the alternator. Is this going to be a problem? It also doesn't leave me any room for adjustment. I am using an alternator from a 1975 chevy pickup with a 350 motor. Any help would be be greatly appreciated My wife is getting mad that her car is sitting out in the cold every night.
Also my old 6v system has a bed regulator and a borrowed battery from a friend who needs it back. Can I hook up everything for 12 v and run it w/o an alternator? My old system wasn't charging anyways and I don't typically use the lights (mostly b/c i had no working charging system). That would atleast let me get this out of the garage.
Haven't some of you also had success using a foreign type alternator as well?
Thanks
