Internal Reg.alternator on 69 valiant?
I’m not talking about fleet cars with different alts. I’m talking about a plain Jane stripper car vs a loaded with elect accessories car. Both have the normal looking finned alternator with different amp output. Same regulator.
The point is this:
The 'normal looking alternator' that came in 1969 was removed from the car.
External appearences of repaired, rebuilt, and replacement alternators are no guarentee they have the factory internals nor meet the factory specs. In fact we have learned through experience that more and more 'replacement parts' are just whatever physically fits.
In the first post, 65Valium shows us two DIFFERENT alternators.
The one on top could be the original with a new rear bearing or replacement that looks similar.
We do not know what rotor is in it. It is the mainly the rotor that drives the field current.
It could have a rotor for a Chrysler built '60 amp' alternator even though that was never a standard option in '69 (or 70 or 71 or 72 or 73 excepted with the heated back glass). In fact if you go to look up replacement rotors, only '60 amp' rotors are what you will find being retailed now.
The second alternator shown is a revised squareback. That was never offered on any A-body. It didn't even exist yet.
OK OK stop the bullshit dude.
the guy has a 1969 Valiant. NONE of these parts you are bringing up ever came on a 69 Valiant and YOU KNOW IT!
you know exactly what I’m saying and you are looking for anything that is oddball to **** with me. Not working DH
I beleive he is using it to show that alternators with high draw field currents got special regulators.
