Have an earlier Ford with an alternator that uses a separate voltage regulator?
Ask your local rebuilder to look into the TRANSPO brand of voltage regulator for this series of alternator.
Direct replacement, bolt for plug. No modifications. Frank Oropeza and I tested the F540SP model by connecting jumper wires to 240 vac, and then testing the reg by touching the wires to any two different terminals including case ground. An impressive ADJUSTABLE set-point voltage regulator.
The TRANSPO 540XHD is also a voltage adjustable regulator with a 50 ampere power transistor, a ten ampere switching transistor, and a full one watt zener diode and voltage divider resistors rated 400% over-current.
