I'm assuming I can't use my Delco Remy Voltage Regulator because it was paired with an alternator previously.
Where can I purchase a Regulator that will go with a 12V generator BUT is period looking in all respects? | | |

So does Jim Carter.
Check with your FLAPS. If they don't have them, they can usually get them. | | |

They ordered a regulator to go with it but the case, though black and the same geometry as the Delco Remy I have had that cheapo no name, yellow-ey looking metal. Had China all over it.
I'll check NAPA, Jim Carter and American Classic.
THanks guys,

Took your adce and checked out ebay.
There's a NOS reg there but the lister can't tell me what it's for.
He gives number (the code). Does DElco Remy have a site (link) where I can check those numbers? | | |
