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? ------------- /diaries/details.asp?ID=1622" rel="nofollow - 54 Atom /diaries/details.asp?ID=2179" rel="nofollow - 77 Tique 64 X55 Dunphy Keep it original, Pete < |

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.

checker3, you can purchase the "one wire " from Karen. I also have an OEM gen. w/ regulator or an OEM Prestolite alt. w/ regulator. CorrectCraftParts has all these READY TO SHIP....Billy ------------- boat dr /diaries/details.asp?ID=4631 - 1949 Dart /diaries/details.asp?ID=1533 - 1964 American Skier |

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..... ------------- checker3 |
