If it were my car, I would hold out for a close dated 704, since that is the correct one for your car. They are not rare, just may take a bit to find the date code that works.

Ok, so the 37 amp (1100704) should be what you need. I have a restored 1100700 55 amp that dates perfect for your car but need to check what I have for 704s.

The rear case is late 70s, not the original mate for the front case. This is what happened when they went through the rebuilders back in the day.

I was pointing out that the late 60s pulleys looks silver cad but the pulley off my 902 looks possibly gold cad or zinc. The fans both look to be silver cad.

A lot of times, it is not that the threads are rusted but that the nut is rusted to the line itself. Spray the PB or Kroil in between the line and the nut, as well as into the threads.
