356/912 alternator conversion kit

Post by rocket280 »

This kit contains all the components needed to convert your 356 or 912 to run with a brand new 12v alternator with built in voltage regulator and costs £360. All 356 and 912 models come with a dynamo with a separate regulator and most 356s run with a 6v system. The advantage of this kit is that you can convert your old 6v system to run with a modern style 12v alternator. The benefits of this are plain to see with better lights, starting and you can run a modern stereo. Also the alternator you get with this kit is not a reconditioned unit but a brand new item so you will also have the piece of mind of a reliable charging system. The kit includes a 55a alternator, fan hub, fan hub spacer, pressed steel fan backing plate, sand cast aluminum alternator stand, securing strap, wiring connections and instructions. If you have an early style 356 engine with a flip top style filler can you will also need the specially made adapter plate shown in the pictures. This costs an extra £20. All the components for this kit have been custom made to adapt this modern style vw alternator to work with this engine. You can also purchase the complete set of components for this kit without the alternator if you already have one or would like to use a more powerful one. The kit without the alternator will cost £270 I can post the kit in the UK with the alternator for £25 or £15 without the alternator. If you have any other questions please let me know

I'll have one of these once I've got my 912 on the road and have realised how crap the original generator is.
