It same like Piper install on their airplanes.<br>
My advise go to Japan made, they much more efficient and light
weight.<br>
More, they have on the back regulator as well with very strong
temperature<br>
compensation, which will keep output stable in wide range of load.<br>
Also, latest Japanese alternators using 6 phases A to D conversion,
which<br>
is huge benefit for high load and much less electric noise.<br><br>
I think to change to Japanese alternator on my Cherokee 180, but there
<br>
is no STS available at this time.... :-(<br><br>

My alternator shop says it is a 60-70's Chrysler or Ford but didn't know
exactly which one.<br>
<br>
Somebody on the Reflector said they knew what it was and was going to
look at their notes and get back to us, but I never saw the note.<br>
