guy said parts come off a 1974 Chevy truck, 400 ci?

dunno.

starter looks NEW.

hate to junk it, but no SBC's hanging around my place right now


alternator looks dirty, prolly work fine.
a 74 would be internally regulated

http://www.madelectrical.com/electricaltech/delcoremy.shtml

The ÔÇ£SIÔÇØ in the model number stands for Systems Integrated, meaning that the voltage regulator is inside of the alternator.

The model 10SI Delco built alternator is the first generation, SI series alternator. It was introduced on the 1969 Corvette, and by 1973 most GM built cars and light trucks used this model alternator.

We do not recommend these physically larger diameter alternators for high performance applications. They are larger and heavier, which often makes mounting more difficult. Also, the physically larger alternators are easily damaged with high RPM. (Centrifugal force at the rotating parts will become much greater as the diameter becomes larger.)

If you have that alternator, I could use it. That is fairly "compact" right john?

From the reading on that MAD link they are all the same size, unless it is one of the monster cadillac ones. this should be normal size.

i cleaned it up, gonna try it on my car in the avatar, it is grossly overcharging at 17.7 volts (boils acid out of the battery)

however, it did take a few hours of cleaning to get it right.

dang, i did not know the starter was so cheep new, or i would not have bothered to wash it.
i have some starter shims (two sets) and some NON-metric starter bolts, too

works great, i can demo it off my jump start box.

edit, the Alternator won't worth washing either:
$29

Yea, if it doesn't work that will be fine. I have space issues to worry about of course.

well, Harry jinxed in the rebuild thread, "shoulda had it tested first...."

sure enough, it was not working when tested at the parts store :(

it was same size, so would not have saved you any space, though.

sorry.

Starter still laying around if someone wants it, LMK
