John and List,
You can get a pully and all necessary wiring parts to make this
conversion from Fifth Ave Antique Auto Parts in Kanas. Their telephone #
is 913-632-3450 fax # 913-632-6154. Talk to Randy Rundle. He custom
makes pullies to fit these alternators ( about $35.) He also has necessary
DA plug for this conversion. I did this on my TR4A using these parts and
have been extremely happy with the results. I also followed Dan Masters
instructions. I will never have a generator again on a daily driver. Good
luck.
