On my '72 1302 I converted to a internally regulated alternator long ago, and tossed the stock voltage regulator...excess weight.

What alts can you use? What's the power rating? Mods to make them work?

Stock Type 1 style alternators come in 55 amp, 75 amp and 95 amp. They will work with any type 1 shroud or a DTM shroud for type 1 or type 4.
Porsche alternators must be used with a 911 style shroud. I don't know all the amperage ratings of the Porsche alternators.

I have asked this question on the typ4rum too, but can I use my T1 regulator (my T1 alternator is 50A) with a 35A alternator on a porsche fan unit? Will the alternator still charge correctly? Or will I have to get another regulator suitable for the 35A output? I would love to use the original regulator as that would be neat, and would save me having to buy another...

Chris
