Sprite/Midget Alternator Conversion Kit, with Pulley Installed (Bugeye thru 1971)
Alternators are great if you have extra electric accessories to run on your Sprite, but they are also great for many other reasons:
• The bearings are superior to those in the generators-they are much more durable than the bushings on which your generator rides.
• The lights won't dim at traffic lights at idle speed.
• You can get rid of your external regulator, which is one less thing to have to clean and keep corrosion free (regulator is built-in on alternators).
• An alternator is strongly recommended for supercharged cars in particular
• You get rid of the tach drive and cable, both of which are persistent maintenance issues. (you'll need either an electronic tach conversion or an electronic tachometer, however)
There is no downside to this switch! Easy to install! Fits 948, 1098 & 1275 cars!
INSTALLATION NOTES:
- When installing this kit, the voltage regulator is internalized in the alternator, making your original regulator obsolete. You can either remove it, or you can replace it with our Dummy Voltage Regulator to maintain the original appearance.
- Installation instructions are directly emailed to you upon purchase
