REFLECTOR: Cessna Lycoming Alternator

[Ron Brown]

While helping some folks who were stranded with a dead alternator on a Saturday) when FAA certified folks didn't want to come out and help):

A helpful Orielly automotive parts guy helped us ID an alternator that would replace the large 60 amp Cessna alternator.  It is very similar to an alternator that fits a 1971 Ford Pickup with 302 V-8 engine.  External regulator (try VR-600 or there is a new VR-301 low profile, solid state regulator which will also work).  The Orielly part number for the alternator is 01-0147 - except this has a double pulley.  The parts guy quickly changed out the pulley and it works.

Looking at the NAPA listings, this alternator is used on a bunch of Fords.  They had a single groove pulley, 60 amp alternator listed RAY2133014 which also should work.
