Hey guys,
I'm trying to finish the 12 volt conversion that somebody hacked up on the 51 H that I just acquired. It was basically set up to start and run off of a 12 volt battery, but that's it; it had no charging system, and the original 6 volt generator was missing.
Due to my budget constrictions, I decided just to slap an alternator on it, but it apparently isn't that easy.

I guess I'm just wondering what is the absolute tiniest alternator that you know of? Alternatively, if you have an H that you've converted to 12 volts, can you post a picture of the mounting of the alternator and tell me what the alt is off of?
