I have gotten the delco generator of my dreams, maybe. Is there a site which has delco generator part numbers? Or is there some other way to decipher the part numbers and tell if my generator is 6 or 12 volt?

On the Delco generators I have seen ,, the black painted oval data tag is on the 6V and the red painted tag on the 12V.

I have an old Delco Parts Book that lists generator numbers, their original application, and whether they are 6 or 12 volt.

If you post the number of yours, I should be able to tell you the original application..

Dusty is correct about the color of the tag..

I pulled the generator out of the box. It only has a rebuilders tag on it. The numbers on the rebuilders tag are:

33/1028
21/9/10/79

The reason I was impressed with this was that it has the shaft out of both ends to attach a power steering pump.

I guess that means I am SOL as far as a definite identificaton goes.

Delco generators have 7 digit ID numbers. 95% of them begin with a 11..

I don't recall any 6v Chev having power steering. I may be wrong on that, but you most likely have a 12v unit off a late 50's v-8.

I have the same question, Bill. My generator is a model 0028. Is it a six volt?


Can U believe it? My wife says: "I want an old pickup truck" so I HAD to buy it!!
