I'm interested in converting the 62 over to an alternator from a generator. What brackets are required for doing this? Is there a certain type of alternator that I need to get? Going to an internally regulated setup would be really nice. I have the wiring guide from mad electrical, but I would really appreciate it if you guys could help me out with the parts. I have no clue to what to get.

I put a rebuilt generator on the car about 2 years ago and it did fine until I took it out for a 10 mile drive this past weekend. I got home and the car died in the driveway. I tried to start it back and got a click click click. So, I charged the battery long enough for the car to crank, and then I got my multimeter out and checked the voltage at the battery when the car was running. At about 2500 rpm, it was only putting out about 12.6 volts. At idle it was putting out about 12.1.

I'll check the points on it this weekend. You know what the gap should be? I'm really wanting to do the upgrade though. I might put AC in the car in the future with a better stereo, and the headlights definitely need some help, haha.
