Turning back the clock
restored....I have since changed the alternator to replicate the original MotorCraft alternator. Butch said he went to his local alternator shop, grabbed a dozen and spun them to pick the freeist spinning one. Then he took the guts out of it. Since it had to be there, he used it to tighten the belt.
When he first saw the engine compartment, he poked me and whispered...."we didn't use alternators". I promptly grabbed the photo (above ) and pointed out the alternator . Then he said..."Oh yeah, this was the modified car....I meant we did not use them in Pro Stock" :)
