Alternator 55 AMP
55 Amp Marine Alternator for the older ski boats, this alternator has a built in voltage regulator, if yours has an external regulator it will need to be removed.
Mounting 'Foot" 2" wide
Adjusting "ear" 5/16" Threads inside
Pulley: single approx. 2 7/8 Dia.
Can be operated in either LH or RH rotation engines.
NEVER Install a 95 amp or larger alternator with stock engine/boat wiring designed for 55 amp alternators. To increase alternator size/capacity you need to upgrade to the proper size wiring!
Wiring:
Post for large output wire (typically #10 gauge)
Purple wire: To ignition circuit, (when key is on this wire "excites" the field)
Red wire: Needs to connect to constant 12v + typically run back to the starter solenoid battery cable.
