Re: [FWDLK] Converting from generator to alternator

What years were the power steering pumps mated to the generator? That would make it difficult to convert.

Also, Many alternators put out more amps than generators, and the wire going to the ammeter might be undersized for the job.  I Read an article somewhere about bypassing that or adding a parallel circuit so as not to overload that circuit and cause a fire.   Can't find it at the moment.

Great information Dave; thank you for the great tip on “safety.”  I am re-wiring my ‘56 Ply and will incorporate this feature with all the other electrical upgrades I have incorporated.
