Re: alternator conversion on a 69 2000

["Paul" <9laser3@bright.net>]

  I used a late 80's V6 Camero alternator in my 1969 1600.  It only puts out
45 amps on demand but I still used in-line 30 amp fuses.  Just like Eric, I
let my battery run down and toasted the fuse when the alternator kicked in.
About an hour on a recharger and I was good to go again.
  For a bracket I used the early 1600 alternator bracket.  Then when I had
to replace the water pump, I had to switch to a smog pump bracket to keep
the pulleys aligned.
