The VOLTAGE REGULATOR in the alternator determines the output voltage. DON'T start chopping up the diodes!

There are a number of aftermarket regulators available to make these alternators do things GM never intended! Do you need 8 Volt positive ground? Somebody PROBABLY makes a regulator for that, but you'd have to change the rectifier to get positive ground AND the regulator to get the correct voltage.

If you want a SMALL 12 Volt alternator, search the archives for Toyota or Nippondenso. Part numbers have been posted in the past!
