Re: Alternator that looks like a generator. Is there such a thing.
I don't think anyone would argue that that an alternator is not a technological improvement over a generator. But for how most people drive these cars today, the question is - do you really need the technological improvement? Especially today with quality LED head and tail lights. The extra current available from an alternator may not be needed. For some it is, I have no problem with that - to each his own.
I rebuild original Ford generators just for fun, I know them pretty well. They are very high quality. When properly rebuilt and set up correctly, they will provide many years of trouble free service. This is an example of one I rebuilt recently.
