Generator to Alternator Conversion 120-130 1965

I just reamed out the alt hole, found the right bolt to go into the "ear" and fabbed a tension bracket using 2 alt tension brackets bolted together. The wiring is simple, get rid of the V reg, hook the big fat red to the main "+" post on the alt and I think the amp wire (small red?) I wired to a small spade connect on thaealt.. I had to use a couple of washers to line up the alt pulley with the engine pulley....all this sounds very mcgyver but it worked so well I never improved it. Was inexpensive and worked.
