Thanks, Randall;

I think, *perhaps*, I have found the Wichita, KS source to which Kent
Schrack
was referring:

See *http://acealternatorstarter.com/Home.aspx
<http://acealternatorstarter.com/Home.aspx>*

They claim "We have it to fit everything from Lawnmowers to Locomotives."
Not sure, but I'd say Triumphs have to fit *somewhere *in  that spectrum.
:- )

Thanks again!
