Alternator Conversion 120-130

I McGuyvered mine in using the gen bracket, a carriage bolt and a couple of nylon threaded nuts. Just a little work with an angle grinder made it snug right up. A word of caution though, it might just be that my engine isn't grounding correctly, but when I installed my new alt this way it took me forever and a day to figure out that it wasn't grounding correctly. A wire from a (non-live, i.e. not the battery post) bolt on the back of the alternator straight to the negative battery terminal cleared that right up.
