The BMC manual claimed:-


Type

Car

Cut-in rpm

Max Amps/rpm


C45 PV6

Up to BJ8

1,100-1,250

25amp/13.5v at 1,700-1,900


C42

BJ8

1,250

30amp/13.5v at 1,250 


Lucas 17ACR alternator. Any neg car

Dunno!

40amps/13.5+v from idle

Claims. That?s new, tip top with lovely wiring, beautiful earth connections all 
round and wonderful Control Box.

Of course, there?s no mention of the 17ACR in the book; just put it in for 
general interest. I?ve seen it rated at 45 amps but am happy enough with 40.

(Once installed on the readily available bracket the 17ACR looks OK. You?d not 
really notice unless you were looking at a row of Healeys at a show. Not for 
the purists, I know).

There you are, 26A at full house. 
How much does the generator generate? 20-25A if you are lucky.
