Default Re: 59AB Going into my '33 Truck, Generator Question

I have a set of those factory merc mounts, and they would not work for me to put a 59a motor in two 34 cars I have done. I made my own, similar to what deuce lover shows in post 15. Main thing I believe is you are trying to locate the crank shaft in the same location as the stock motor at the front. With the 59a motor, the loop for the hand crank guide will be in the way, and since I do not like to wreck rare parts I used the spring /U bolt plate from a model A. I also used the Whitney Alternator conversion with a 34 fan and genni. They are not cheap, dont make a lot of amps, but are built to take the extra load from a fan
