The alternator can deliver 75A at idle. The design uses all new 6 phase internals inside a billet alloy casing that bolts into the 911 fan housing. It is a direct fit to early cars and requires spacers to fit mid and later years. Other 'rewound' alternators claim high output but cannot reject the heat generated by the windings for a sustained period. “ https://www.classicretrofit.com/collections...ded-alternators |

All new manufacture. |

I’d think the underdash distribution/control ducts with the electric compressor would be a nice setup for a -6. Wouldn’t have to hack up the firewall to clear the compressor mount. I don’t know if a condenser on the engine lid (ala 911) would make it a viable setup. A larger alternator could make it work, though not inexpensively.
