Who's alternator are you guys using for your race cars? Looking for something that charges at a lower rpm (say 900-1200 rpm or so) that way it will charge while the car is idling.
Magnum or LA engine? I am useing the 120 amp factory on on my 360 magnum engine.Who's alternator are you guys using for your race cars? Looking for something that charges at a lower rpm (say 900-1200 rpm or so) that way it will charge while the car is idling.

On my old 73 dodge dart. That had a 440 with Indy EZ heads..I ran this alt. I had to make some new mounting bushings. To space it out so the belt was straight and had to cut down the main battery terminal some. But other than that it charged great and never had any problems. It keeps up with my electric fan, fuel pump etc.440.
I was hoping this had the internal regulator but the O'Reilly site lists this as using an external regulator....is that true?On my old 73 dodge dart.

Yes you had to use a external RegulatorI was hoping this had the internal regulator but the O'Reilly site lists this as using an external regulator....is that true?

Also to note, if you spin your alternator faster with a smaller pulley it will cost you some power....if you are good with that then that may be a solution for you.
