I race an old Super Vee. It never had an alternator to my knowledge. I
don't much worry about overheating, but the ancient Bosch Motronic ignition
system sure gets surly at 11.99 volts. All the battery maintenance takes
some of the fun out of the weekend - especially when your neighbor
inadvertently unplugs the power cord.
So, Any recommendations for an alternator for this application? Would
prefer a small production unit but am open to all options.

>Concentrate on driving well rather than trying to save a micro horsepower.
