My 62 CC has a 170 Ford Falcon 6cyl motor. Has anyone converted on of these to a alernator and if so what one did you use??

Bill,
The most common if you do not want to keep it original  is to go with a one wire alternator. They are grouped in frame sizes so if you get the same, it will fit.Remind me here - you are missing the original? BTW, it's best to keep all your posts on the same subject in the same thread!  Where are the pictures of the boat? |

This is why it's always a good idea to keep the same subject in the same thread and the reason I mentioned that. I made the same mistake and thought he was just looking for a replacent but evidently he doesn't even know what was on the 170 originally. Bill, The owners manual may give you a clue on what Eaton was on the engine from Interceptor. |

I don't have a generator or regulator on the motor thats why I'm looking for a replacement or to convert to a altenator.
Were do I find "Correctcraftparts" ?? I looked here on this site and don't see it. I googled it and only found "mycorrectcraftparts" and there wasn't anything there..... |
