Hi Bob,
I've installed a 6v Alternator, positive ground into my 1955 Fairlane, 292 V8. The specific brand was a Powermaster 82106, also had to fit a Powermaster pulley on it. It works great, feeds a constant 7.2V when running. There were a couple small bugs to work out later, but overall I'm satisfied with it. Nice to be able to have all electrical items finally running properly.
