I bought an unstamped open face front case to basically make a backup or sit in replacement for my '902.
The bavk.finnwd diamond did cost , and it is a diamond finned. Do you know of the 69 version that has a mounting bolt at the 6 pack instead of 4 oclock.still works if you actually rotate the rear 90 degrees counter clock wise

The rear case needs to be clocked with the plug at 9 oclock (viewing from the back) to be in the correct place for the wiring harness.

Also, pulled the fan and pulley off my unrestored 902 (April date code) to check plating. I can see what looks like a lighter gold plating on the back of the pulley. The fan is cad. Pics below but hard to get the lighting to see the gold on the pulley. The last pic is the fan and pulley from a later 60s 10dn alt. Clearly cad on both. Same fan style as 902.

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.

The pulley on my 902 is 2-3/4" in diameter.

Just to jump into the mix here since I’m in the hunt for a 902 alternator myself now. Had a great phone conversation with RamAirNacho earlier today. For a car with an 06C build date, what would be a reasonable alternator build date. I read on a Camaro forum that they use anything from 2-weeks before the build date to a couple of months back. Was Pontiac any tighter on these dates than the Chevy clowns? Lol. Just kidding.
