I have a generator and don't know if I need to change to a regulator or what. I'll probably need to call the AC company.
Just 2 groove pulleys -- one for the alternator and one for the compressor. The water pump on the 401 is mounted too high to use an engine-mounted fan, so I went with an electric fan with shroud. I did convert from a generator to an alternator.
