Beautiful. Don't forget to get between half inch to full inch smaller belt in length

yea i already have that taken care of but thanks for the reminder, i do have one question though it looks as though on my alternator there is a plug of some sort and the post for the charge on the back of this one there is a post but no plug. But i am guessing there is no need for the plug because this alternator has a external regulator on it....

The pulg is visible in the 3rd picture

Plugs straight into factory

You see what I am talking about?

[muddybass 13]

I know what piece you are talking about but there is nothing where a plug can fit into its just a metal housing

On the 3rd pic on the bottom right isn't a plug?

[muddybass 13]

nope like i said before its a metal housing where some wires are in. no place to plug a plug in but thats why im thinking that is the external regulator that is where i can adjust my voltage...

Regardless if there is an external regulator or not there needs be a place to plug in the alternator. Did you get the $49 option or $149 option mike gives on external regulators?

[muddybass 13]

i got the $49 dollar option which was the only one he offered, here is a better picture

[mlcantin 32]

What is under that black cap on top?

[muddybass 13]

its some kind of dial is what it looks like the wires run into it but mike said all i have to do is hook it up and it will work he already dialed the voltage in at 14.8 after heat displacement he said i would get a 14.4 charge

I have no clue what is going on here. I just plug and played mine. I would email mike. He will respond around 12:30 tonight

[muddybass 13]

thanks bud for the info i hope i dont have to send it back in that would be a shame

[mlcantin 32]

He will have the answers don't you worry. What batteries are you running?

Sounds like a dial for external regulation of some sort. Voltage can be dialed in by the end user. Just taking a guess.
